The comedian reached the office in the afternoon, recorded his statement for more than five hours, and left the premises at 6.45, the official said.

He said the agency had earlier recorded statements of Ranveer Allahbadia, Ashish Chanchlani, Apoorva Makhija and others.

Raina got into trouble after Allahbadia's remarks on his now-deleted web show “India's Got Latent” led to a massive furore in February, both online and offline, with multiple police complaints filed against the two and those involved with the show.
