Twist in Raj Kundra Fraud Case: Shilpa Shetty’s Husband Claims ‘Part of INR 60 Crore Crime Proceeds Paid to Bipasha Basu and Neha Dhupia As Fees’; EOW Plans Further Probe

Mumbai, September 16: In a fresh development in the Rs 60 crore fraud case, businessman Raj Kundra has alleged that a portion of the amount was paid as fees to Bollywood actresses Bipasha Basu and Neha Dhupia. The claim came during his statement to the Mumbai Police’s Economic Offences Wing (EOW), which is probing the case.

According to sources, Kundra claimed that a portion of the money in question was paid as fees to Bipasha and Neha. However, during the five-hour-long interrogation, he reportedly remained silent on several crucial points, prompting the EOW to plan further rounds of questioning. Shilpa Shetty’s Husband Raj Kundra Records Statement with Mumbai Police in Alleged INR 60 Crore Cheating Case; Further Probe Underway.

Reports say that investigators have also found that funds were directly transferred from the company’s accounts into the accounts of four actresses, including Shilpa Shetty, Bipasha Basu, and Neha Dhupia. In addition, transactions were traced to Balaji Entertainment. So far, the EOW has tracked nearly ₹25 crore in direct transfers.

The probe further revealed that during demonetisation, the company’s financial dealings were impacted by a cash crunch, during which certain suspicious fund transfers were made to other accounts. Evidence of these transfers has now been secured by the EOW. Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra Register Statements With the Mumbai Police in INR 60 Crore Fraud Case.

The investigation remains ongoing, with more names surfacing. The EOW is expected to summon other individuals linked to the case in the coming days.
