His arrest comes as police continued their search for the missing head of
Meenakshi Thapar, a 26 year old actress who was murdered and dismembered
after being kidnapped by two aspiring actors she met on the set of her
latest film.
The Bollywood industry has long been associated with crime and many of its
films are believed to have been used as money laundering vehicles by some of
Mumbai’s most feared gangsters.
Hussein Zaidi, India’s a crime reporter and scriptwriter, said Bollywood is
still largely financed by money launderers and produced by people of dubious
credentials.
“Bollywood is always vulnerable to people with all kinds of backgrounds,
no one asks for credentials. They get access to people through indirect
invites to parties and women still get parts through the casting couch. Lots
of the money is still underworld finance,” he said.
Gautam Vora’s money was as clean as it comes in India, but he told detectives: “my
love of women has done me in.”
