Jacqueline Fernandez has been questioned several times by the Enforcement Directorate and the Delhi Police’s Economic Offences Wing (EOW), ever since her name surfaced in the Rs 200-crore money extortion case linked to alleged conman Sukesh Chandresekhar. Several intimate pictures of Jacqueline and Sukesh had also surfaced on the internet. A few months ago, Jacqueline Fernandez was named as an accused in a chargesheet filed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) against conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar. The investigating agency had reportedly stated that the actress was aware of the extortion racket run by the conman and alleged helped him in transferring ‘proceeds of crime’. In her plea, Jacqueline had clarified on her connection with the alleged conman. According to ANI, her plea read, “Jacqueline is another victim of the criminal acts committed by the main accused and his associates, who consistently lied about his real identity and exercised undue influence over the applicant’s personal and professional life either by showering her (and her family) with expensive gifts or claiming that he had done so I would do so, without ever mentioning their source.”
When ETimes had reached out to Jacqueline’s lawyer Prashant Patil, he had stated, “I repeat, that my client is innocent and she shall fight for her dignity by following the due process of law.”
