Shilpa Shetty, Raj Kundra, Poonam Pandey
Businessman Raj Kundra, who is the husband of Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty was sent into police custody till July 23 in a case related to the creation and publication of pornographic content. He was arrested Monday night by the city police's crime branch after being booked under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code and the Information Technology Act. Reacting to Kundra's arrest, Poonam Pandey issued a statement saying her heart goes to Shilpa Shetty and her kids.
"At this moment my heart goes out to Shilpa Shetty & her kids. I can’t imagine what she must be going through. So, I refuse to use this opportunity to highlight my trauma," Pandey said in a statement.
"The only thing I’ll add is that I have filed a police complaint in 2019 against Raj Kundra and subsequently registered a case at the honourable high court of Bombay against him for fraud & theft. This matter is sub judice, hence I would prefer to limit my statements. Also, I have full faith in our police & the judicial process," she added.
