Mumbai: Mumbai court has granted bail to Raj Kundra, husband of Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty, in the pornography case on a surety of Rs 50,000.

This comes after the businessman on Saturday moved a bail application in court, claiming that he was being made a "scapegoat" and that there was not single evidence in the supplementary charge sheet of him being actively involved in the creation of alleged questionable content.

The crime branch, probing the case, had recently filed a supplementary charge sheet against Kundra and three others in the case pertaining to alleged creation of pornographic films and publishing them through some apps.

Kundra, was arrested on July 19 after being booked under relevant sections of the IPC and the Information Technology Act. He has since spent two months in Judicial custody.
