KUNDRA RELEASED FROM JAIL
Indian businessman was accused of producing and distributing adult content
Indian businessman Raj Kundra walked out of Arthur Jail in Mumbai yesterday, after spending two months in police custody after being accused of production and distribution of pornographic content. Hours before he walked out of jail, his wife and Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty Kundra shared a quote by Chinese-American modernist architect Roger Lee on Instagram hours.
Kundra was granted bail in the pornography case on September 19 and he walked out of a Mumbai jail, a day after a magistrate court granted bail. He’s yet to comment on his arrest or his release, but his wife updated her fans on bad phases being temporary in life.
“Rainbows exist to prove that beautiful things can happen after a bad storm,” wrote Shetty.
Kundra’s associate and co-accused Ryan Thorpe, who was arrested along with him on July 19, was also granted bail by the court in the case pertaining to alleged creation of pornographic films and publishing them through some apps.
Kundra was granted bail on a 50,000 rupees (around Dh2,500) bond. He, along with 11 other people, was arrested by police on July 19 on charges of allegedly making pornographic videos.
The Mumbai Police Department filed a 1,400-page chargesheet in court last Thursday, charging Raj Kundra and naming Shilpa Shetty as a witness. Kundra moved a bail plea before the metropolitan magistrate court on Saturday, days after the police filed a supplementary charge-sheet in the case.
