The Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of the Mumbai Police interrogated Bollywood actress and entrepreneur Shilpa Shetty in connection to a fraud case involving around ₹60 crore, during which the authorities questioned Shetty for nearly four and a half hours. The questioning was confirmed by officials, with the authorities stating that she was just one witness and it was part of an overall questioning of several witnesses in the continuing investigation of the alleged financial fraud.
As reported by EOW sources, police officials went Shilpa Shetty’s residence to avail Shilpa Shetty for the questioning session. Reports state that Shilpa Shetty gave all the particulars with regard to transactions with a bank account belonging to her advertising firm, which investigators have reason to believe could be associated with the fictitious fraud. She also provided many other financial documents in support of the entire inquiry, which are still with police for examination.
Shilpa’s husband and businessman Raj Kundra is being examined in the same case too. The Mumbai Police had spoken to him earlier in September. They told us that Kundra would be summoned again for a second phase of questioning under this same investigation next week.
The complainant, Deepak Kothari-also an entrepreneur-was claiming fraud and criminal conspiracy. Kothari stated in his complaint that Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra defrauded him of more than ₹60 crores under false grounds of business expansion between 2015 and 2023. It was also alleged by the complainant that the money was diverted for personal uses.
The EOW is yet to declare anything on the outcome of this questioning. All documents and financial statements of Shilpa Shetty are under verification. After a meticulous examination of the collected evidences from both Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra, police are expected to announce the forthcoming course of action.
