Filmmaker Vikram Bhatt and his wife Shwetambari have been jailed for over a month in connection with an alleged Rs 44.7-crore fraud case initiated by Indira IVF founder Ajay Murdia. Police claim to have collected evidence, including bills, from Bhatt's Mumbai locations, while asserting a lack of cooperation from his team. Bhatt's lawyer disputes the fraud allegations, arguing the case is civil and related to a contract breach, and has questioned the police's procedural conduct. The Rajasthan High Court rejected a plea to quash the FIR, and a hearing on an application for an unbiased investigation is scheduled.
