YouTuber Puneet Kaur speaks out against Raj Kundra: Businessman Raj Kundra, husband of Bollywood actor Shilpa Shetty, was sent into police custody till July 23 in a case related to the creation and publication of pornographic content yesterday. Following Kundra's arrest, a YouTuber named Puneet Kaur alleged on social media that Raj had earlier reached out to her through DM (direct message) for Hotshots, a mobile application through which he allegedly made financial gains in the illegal business.
Kaur wrote, "Brooo do you OGS remember our verified DM video where he reached out to me for hotshots!?!? Im deaaad (sic)." She also went on to share videos in which talks about her encounter with Kundra in deatail.
Kundra, a British-Indian businessman, was arrested on July 19 night by the Mumbai Police crime branch after cops found a "key piece of evidence" certain WhatsApp chats between Kundra and his partners, that connected him to the alleged porn app scandal.
In her next story, Puneet Kaur went to reveal that she first thought it was a spam message but this arrest implied he was really "luring people". She posted, "I can’t even WTF this man was really luring people -we literally thought it was spam when he sent that DM to me!? Jesus Christ man rot in jail (sic)." She also added snippets of the video in question where she and two others can be seen discussing the direct messages and wondering if Kundra's account had been hacked.
In one of the videos, Puneet Kaur can be seen saying that she thought Kundra has had a midlife crisis so probably "messing with girls to go to Hotshot.com to do something strange. One of the two men accompanying her on the chat then goes on to say, "I think his account got hacked." In reply, another man says, "That would be giving him the benefit of the doubt."
The pornographic material was uploaded on an app names HotShots that was developed by a company, Arms Prime Pvt Ltd, reportedly owned by Kundra. He was initially brought in by Mumbai Police for interrogation, but was later arrested under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code and the Information Technology Act.
After Kundra's arrest an undated video of actor and model Sagarika Shona Suman resurfac ed online, in which she had alleged that the businessman had offered her a role in a web series and asked her for a nude audition.
