Businessma­n Raj Kundra is in a soup again. On Thursday, the Enforcemen­t Directorat­e provisiona­lly attached his assets, including a residentia­l flat in Juhu, Mumbai, in the name of his wife, actor Shilpa Shetty Kundra, a bungalow in Pune and equity shares, worth ₹97.79 crore, in its money-laundering probe related to the alleged ₹6,600 crore Bitcoin-based ponzi scam. The scam is perpetrate­d by a Singapore-based firm, and Kundra is suspected of being a beneficiar­y of the proceeds of crime in the case.

Their advocate Prashant Patil told HT City, “We shall follow the due process of law and take necessary steps as prescribed under provisions of Prevention of Money Laundering Act to protect the liberty and property of my clients (more in box).”
