A Mumbai court has granted bail to businessman Raj Kundra, the husband of actor Shilpa Shetty, two months after his arrest in a pornography case. Kundra has been given bail on a surety of Rs 50,000 along with co-worker Ryan Thorpe.
The Mumbai Police had filed a chargesheet against Kundra on September 16. Two days after this, Kundra filed the bail plea claiming he’s been made a scapegoat while there was no such evidence in the supplementary chargesheet of Kundra being involved. After that, Kundra headed to a metropolitan court seeking his bail and claimed that the inquiry in this case was almost over.
In the charge sheet filed on September 16, Mumbai Police claimed Kundra headed a company producing pornographic films and that he exploited young girls/women struggling to find a way into the film industry with the help of his co-workers. Kundra’s wife Shilpa Shetty has stated that she was not aware of her husband’s activity.
