The case pertains to allegations of laundering money generated through the illegal distribution of adult content, an issue that has embroiled Kundra in controversy since 2021.
In addition to Kundra, a businessman from Kushinagar, Uttar Pradesh, and others connected to the case are also expected to appear for questioning this week.
On November 29, the ED conducted searches at locations associated with Kundra and others in Mumbai and various parts of Uttar Pradesh, including Kanpur, Gorakhpur, and Kushinagar.
These raids extended to premises linked to Kundra’s employees allegedly involved in the activities under investigation. Kundra has previously claimed that he is being falsely implicated in the matter.
