A Mumbai court on Wednesday refused bail to Shilpa Shetty's husband, businessman Raj Kundra, and his associate Ryan Thorpe in the pornography case.
Kundra was sent to 14-day judicial custody on Tuesday. The crime branch earlier told the court that Kundra had plans to sell 119 adult films to a person for USD 1.2 million. The police claimed that during the probe into the case, it was found that Kundra set up Armsprime Media Pvt Ltd, which, through London-based Kenrin Pvt Ltd, bought 'Hotshots' app to upload objectional videos on social media.
The police also claimed to have found 51 obscene videos-- 35 with Hotshots logo and 16 with BollyFame logo, during searches at the office of the accused.
The crime branch has lodged a fresh FIR in connection with a pornography case and named producers of Kundra's company as well as actress Gehana Vashishth in the new case.
