It seems like Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty has landed herself in a pickle. Even as Shilpa was handling the arrest of her husband Raj Kundra on charges of producing the pornographic films, another trouble brewed up for her as she and her mother Sunanda Shetty have been named in an alleged case of fraud in Uttar Pradesh.
The duo has been accused of taking crores of rupees from the people to start the center called Iosis Wellness Centre. While the actress is the chairman of the center, her mother is the director. Two FIRs have been registered at Hazratganj and Vibhuti Khand police stations in Lucknow
According to police officials, Shilpa Shetty and her mother have been accused of taking crores of rupees from two people in the name of opening a branch of the wellness center, but the promise was not fulfilled. The two persons- Jyotsna Chauhan and Veer Singh- have filed a fraud complaint against the actress in this regard. The Hazratganj Police and Vibhuti Khand Police have sent notices for questioning to Shilpa Shetty and her mother.
Meanwhile, Kiran Bawa, the chairperson of IOSIS took to her Instagram handle to reveal that Shilpa Shetty and her mother Sunanda Shetty "have no connection" with IOSIS. "IOSIS is my baby and a brand I have built over the years. I am more than happy to verify facts with the concerned authorities. Till then I humbly request you to remove these posts as the matter is subjudice in the Hon'ble High Court of Bombay where we have Orders in our favour. Such negligence in reporting defamatory content is causing me and my brand name irreparable damage for which I have taken utmost efforts and pains to create goodwill and reputation,” her post said.
