In the complaint against the actor’s husband, the crime branch is in the process of verifying the details. “We are still recording the complaint and are in the process of verifying the authenticity of the model’s complaint before registering a case,” said a senior official.

On Tuesday, police had arrested Umesh Kamat, a former employee of the celebrity businessman.

Kamat, who represents UK-based production house Kenrin, is accused of uploading at least seven to eight “porn and obscene” videos shot by Vasisth on a social media app for monetary consideration.

In the fresh FIR against Vasisth, another model alleged on January 11 she was offered a role in a web series. She said the script did not mention the role required her to act out a sex scene with three men. She told the police she was kept in the dark till the last moment and forced to indulge in sexual acts with the three men in Green Park bungalow at Madh Island.

“Based on her complaint, we have registered an offence and have booked Vasisth and three unidentified men for outraging the modesty of a woman, rape and an

obscene

act. Further investigation is on,” said a Malvani police officer.

The investigation has so far revealed that one of the accused, Yasmin Rowa Khan, and her team would allegedly shoot

porn movies

in the Madh Island bungalow and these would be uploaded on various mobile apps as well Vasisth’s website GV Studios.
