The Enforcement Directorate (ED) raided multiple locations tied to Raj Kundra, including his home and office, in a money laundering case linked to the alleged distribution of pornographic content. The searches took place in Mumbai and Uttar Pradesh.
Kundra, 49, is being questioned by ED officials. The case originates from two FIRs filed in 2022, accusing him of producing and distributing explicit content through digital platforms.
This isn’t Kundra’s first money laundering case. Earlier this year, the ED attached ₹98 crore in assets related to a cryptocurrency case involving him and his wife, Shilpa Shetty, though the Bombay High Court later stayed the order.
Kundra denies all allegations, claiming no evidence ties him to the production of adult content. He previously stated he had no connection to the “Hotshots” app, which is central to the probe.
The investigation focuses on the “Hotshots” app, operated by Kundra’s company. Police allege the app was sold to Kenrin Pvt Ltd, which used it to upload explicit content. WhatsApp chats retrieved from Kundra’s phone reveal discussions about adult films.
