The lawyer had said, “Shilpa’s name should not be mentioned in this case. » After the search in the house, actress Shilpa’s lawyer Prashant Patil issued a statement saying, “There are reports in the media that the Enforcement Directorate has raided the house of my client. Ms. Shilpa Shetty Kundra raided. This news is not true and misleading. He has nothing to do with this matter. Although this case is linked to the ongoing case against Raj Kundra, he is cooperating with the police to uncover the truth.
Prashant further said that we request the media not to use Shilpa Shetty’s name, photo or video in this case as she has nothing to do with this case.

Raj Kundra had posted a story from his official Instagram account, in which it was written – For those it concerns. The media loves to create drama, so let’s set a record. I have been fully cooperating with the investigation that has been ongoing for 4 years. When it comes to the associates’ allegations of pornography and money laundering, suffice it to say that sensationalism at any level will not tarnish trust. In the end, justice will prevail.
He further wrote, “Note to media, repeatedly introducing my wife’s name into this matter in which she has nothing to do is unacceptable. Please respect the limits.
The house of an employee who worked in Singapore for Kundra was also searched. The house in Kanpur of Arvind Srivastava, who worked in Singapore for Raj Kundra, was also raided.

Meanwhile, Harshita had only Rs 20,000 in his account. After this, between May 2019 and 2021, Rs 2 crore 33 lakh 222 reached Harshita’s account. How was an amount of over Rs 2 crore suddenly transferred to the bank account? This money is directly linked to Raj Kundra. Arvind and his wife Harshita were not found in their Kanpur house.
