*Statement from Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra’s, Advocate Prashant Patil* The complainant had a moved a criminal complaint against my clients Raj Kundra and Shilpa shetty in year of 2022 . This complaint was thoroughly investigated by the police in the year of 2022 by adopting the due process of law . After thorough investigation it was found that the complainant had infact received the entire alleged amount of Rupees 90 lacs through legitimate means of payment . My clients bonafidely submitted these documents to the police department. After finding out the truth of the matter , the police delivered justice to my clients . Post this enquiry , the complainant opted to file a private complaint under sec 156(3) CrPC before the Honourable Court . After a passage of almost 2 years , the Honourable Court has directed the police to investigate the case again . We have complete faith in the independence and fairness of the investigation . . The truth shall prevail . My clients have not committed any offence and it has been established through documents in possession of my clients . The invoice between the Compainant and my clients , clearly reflect that there is an Arbritation clause in the said contract. . If the complainant has any grievance about the alleged “interest amount “ the clause of Arbritation can certainly be invoked. However , the act of initiating criminal proceedings for settling commercial disputes has been deprecated by plethora of judgements of Honourable Supreme Court and various Honourable High Courts of our country . My clients shall fight this battle legally and shall cooperate with the investigation agencies . My clients reserve their right to sue the complainant for malicious proceedings , at the right stage of the proceedings.
