The couple had earlier requested permission from the Bombay High Court to travel abroad for a family vacation in Phuket, Thailand, from October 2 to 5. They cited confirmed bookings for travel and stay as part of their plea. However, the court denied their request.

Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra had filed a petition seeking a stay on the lookout notice issued by Mumbai Police’s Economic Offences Wing. Their lawyers, Niranjan Mundargi and Keral Mehta, argued that despite a 2021 case against them, the couple had traveled abroad multiple times and returned to cooperate fully with investigations. They asserted that the couple should be allowed to travel while the current probe is ongoing.
