“We recorded Shilpa Shetty’s statement at her residence for four hours on Saturday,” an officer familiar with the probe told Hindustan Times. “We are now analysing and cross-verifying the statement.”

The EOW had issued look-out-circulars against Shetty and Kundra on September 5 to ensure the couple, who often travel abroad, do not leave the country while the probe is underway, the officer stated. Kundra was also questioned by the EOW at its office for around five hours on September 14.
