Businessman Raj Kundra and his actor-wife Shilpa Shetty, already facing a Mumbai police probe in a Rs 60-crore criminal breach of trust case, have now been charged with cheating. The Economic Offences Wing (EOW) has invoked the cheating charge against the couple in addition to criminal breach of trust, following a complaint by a businessman who alleges he was duped in a loan-cum-investment deal.
The Enforcement Directorate has filed a chargesheet against businessman Raj Kundra in a bitcoin 'scam,' alleging he was a beneficial owner and concealed evidence.
The complaint, filed by businessman Deepak Kothari, director of Lotus Capital Financial Services Ltd, claims the incident took place between 2015 and 2023. Kothari alleged that the couple took the money under the pretext of expanding their business but used it for personal expenses instead.

The relatives have lodged a complaint with the police alleging that the instant loan app's depraved tactics to recover a loan borrowed by the family is likely to have led to them taking the extreme step.

Banned for life from cricket activities, former Rajasthan Royals co-owner Raj Kundra on Friday said he has filed a petition in the Supreme Court after Delhi Police gave him a clean chit in the Indian Premier League betting scandal.
The crisis-ridden Rajasthan Royals and its under-fire co-owner Raj Kundra's future hangs in balance as the BCCI's Emergent Working Committee meets in New Delhi on Monday to deliberate on the IPL spot-fixing and betting scam and take action, if required.
The Supreme Court, which took up the Mudgal committee report on IPL-6 betting and spot-fixing scandal on Friday, has revealed seven of the 13 names being probed.
The Justice Mudgal Committee, appointed to probe the spot-fixing and betting scandal in the sixth edition of Indian Premier League, has cleared Board of Control for Cricket in India president-in-exile Narayanaswami Srinivasan of match-fixing charges and scuttling the investigations that followed the episode. However, it could be temporary relief for him, as he could still find himself in the dock for not taking action against a particular individual, referred to as Individual 3 in the report.
