Mumbai Court Grants Bail To Raj Kundra In Pornography Case

Shilpa Shetty‘s husband businessman Raj Kundra has been granted bail. A Mumbai court has granted bail to Kundra and his employee Ryan Thorpe in the pornographic content case.  Kundra has been granted bail on a surety of Rs 50,000.

Raj Kundra, on Saturday, moved a regular bail plea before a metropolitan magistrate court in Mumbai. The businessman claimed that he was being made a scapegoat in the case without any conclusive evidence.

Raj Kundra and Ryan Thorpe were arrested by the Mumbai Police Crime branch in July of this year. Kundra got embroiled in a controversy after he was alleged of producing pornographic content for foreign-based mobile applications. The matter came to light during a raid in a bungalow on Madh Island. Officials soon found evidence of pornographic content.

A probe into the matter led to the arrest of Umesh Kamat, an associate of Raj Kundra. A charge sheet was soon filed against nine others involved. Four employees of Kundra are believed to have turned witnesses against him.

The Crime Branch had filed a 1,467-page supplementary charge sheet against Raj Kundra, Ryan Thorpe and two others recently.
