Ranya Rao’s Legal Troubles Deepen In Smuggling Case

The gold smuggling case linked to actress Ranya Rao is getting more complicated. The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence has now summoned her stepfather, Ramachandra Rao, while her legal issues continue.

In court, Ranya’s husband, Jatin Hukkeri, revealed that though they married last November, they have been living separately since December. They haven’t officially divorced but are apart due to personal reasons.

DRI officials found that Ranya traveled to Dubai not just from Bengaluru but also from Goa and Mumbai. They suspect she used Hawala channels for smuggling.

Reports show she made around 45 trips to Dubai, often returning the same day. The Karnataka High Court has ordered no action against Jatin until the 24th of this month.

Meanwhile, DRI officials plan to file a case against him. Ranya’s bail hearing has been postponed to Wednesday in a Bengaluru court.
