Read full story: Raj Kundra pornography case: Cops tell court that businessman may try to escape, could continue committing similar crimes if granted bail
Businessman Raj Kundra and his associate Ryan Thorpe were arrested for alleged creation and streaming of pornographic content through apps on July 19 and are in judicial custody. The duo was previously denied bail by a lower magistrate court in the same case. In the last hearing, the additional Sessions Court judge asked the prosecution to file its reply which was filed and submitted on August 10. Opposing the bail plea of Kundra, police said that Kundra would continue to commit similar crimes by uploading obscene videos, which will impact our culture and send a wrong message to the society. Police also told the court that being a British citizen, Raj Kundra might also try to escape, if he was granted bail. It also said Kundra is the relative of absconding accused Pradeep Bakshi, and was likely to communicate with him and help the latter evade probe. Now both Raj and Ryan will remain in judicial custody till August 20. Raj in his bail application stated that police has filed a chargesheet in April and that his name did not figure in it nor the FIR related to the case. It said the accused named in the charge sheet are out on bail, adding that the magistrate's court "erred" in rejecting his bail earlier. His plea stated, 'The entire order is based on conjectures and surmises and deserves to be set aside. The magistrate failed to appreciate that there is no material against the applicant to even show his alleged involvement in the alleged offence'. However, in reply, the police on Tuesday said the crime is of "serious nature" and they were still probing where all the videos were uploaded. Meanwhile, the Mumbai Police Crime Branch is yet to give a clean chit to actress Shilpa Shetty in the case. As the actress was a director of Viaan Industries, Kundra's firm, the police decided to question her. Shilpa had later resigned from the post.
