Rakul Preet Singh on IT Raid Claims
In a detailed statement shared on Instagram, Rakul clarified that the Income Tax search reported in the media was not related to her. She also condemned reports that were published without, according to her, verifying the facts.
Addressing the allegations, Rakul stated that she has been paying her taxes since she was 20 and considered herself a law-abiding citizen. Besides, she said that she came from an Armed Forces family and entered the film industry through her own efforts.
Rakul further denied that she was involved in any illegal foreign remittance, either personally or on behalf of a production house. She also dismissed reports suggesting that she owned any benami property in India or abroad.
The actress also said that she never bought expensive properties and refused to accept them as a matter of principle.
Rakul urged media organisations that published what she called false or speculative reports to remove the stories and issue clarifications. She said that commercial pressures should not come at the expense of facts, reputation and livelihood.
