Ullu App Vibhu Agarwal Molestation Case: Victim To Record Additional Statement At Amboli PS

MUMBAI: According to reliable sources, the victim woman (a former legal advisor in the company) who had filed a molestation complaint against the CEO of Ullu Digital Pvt Ltd, Vibhu Agarwal and others, will record her additional statement in the FIR registered in August this year at the Amboli Police Station on Saturday.

About two months ago, the victim who is a practicing lawyer had approached the Zonal DCP Abhishek Trimukhe alleging that the male officer (IO) at Amboli PS seemed to be biased against her and appeared to be supporting the accused persons including the country head of Ullu Digital Anjali Raina and CEO Vibhu Agarwal in the case, which enabled the accused persons to get interim anticipatory bail from the Dindoshi Sessions court. She had pointed out to the senior officer that preferably the IO (investigating officer) in cases involving women should ideally be a woman officer. The DCP had agreed to look into the matter.

It may be recalled that an FIR for molestation, etc., against officials of the Ullu Digital Management was registered in August this year, by a former woman employee who was the legal advisor of the company.

The Amboli police station is investigating the case. The victim has alleged that the company was involved in producing pornographic content for its Ullu and Cheeti Apps and pornographic audio podcasts for its Lattu App, and forced and blackmailed her to act/give porn voice-overs for these projects. When she refused, they trapped her and two others associated with her, in a false extortion case, in which she has secured bail from the Lucknow sessions court. Ullu Digital CEO Vibhu Agarwal was unavailable for comment, in spite of several attempts to contact him for his version or side of the story.

The 28-year-old victim/complainant who registered the FIR at the Amboli Police Station in suburban Mumbai (FIR No. 622/21) u/s 354, 354B, 506, etc., of the IPC against Vibhu Agarwal, CEO of Ullu Digital Pvt Ltd and others, has alleged in her initial statement to the police that the CEO of Ullu App, Vibhu Agarwal forced her to remove her undergarments and forced her to wear company product samples of Ullu Apparel, then one Anjali Raina, the Country Head of Ullu Digital Pvt Ltd along with Vibhu Agarwal clicked photographs of the victim in the Ullu brand undergarments as well as shot obscene videos of her, then later on used the videos to blackmail her. Her mobile phone was forcibly confiscated and its contents and data deleted, when she was forcibly detained at the Ullu office in Mumbai, against her will. They also allegedly threatened to make her videos viral and harm her family.
