The Bombay High Court has ordered actress Shilpa Shetty and her husband Raj Kundra to deposit ₹60 crore if they want to travel abroad, due to a ₹60 crore fraud case and a Lookout Circular. The order stemmed from their petition to quash the LOC, which was issued following an FIR alleging financial misconduct related to investments.

According to the case records, the LOC was issued after an FIR was lodged accusing the couple of financial misconduct involving investment-related transactions. The couple had approached the court claiming that the LOC was unjustified and restricted their right to travel, particularly for professional commitments abroad.

The High Court, however, observed that given the magnitude of the alleged fraud and the ongoing investigation, it was necessary to impose safeguards before allowing international travel.

The matter will be heard further after the couple complies with the court's directive.
