Jacqueline Fernandez is a Sri Lankan national who made it big in the Bollywood film industry. Having made her debut in the year 2009, the actress worked out her way to grab projects with biggies in no time. Now, she is in a mess as the enforcement directorate confirmed that the actress was involved in money laundering.
It is a known fact that Jacqueline Fernandez has been named an accused in the money laundering case against conman Sukesh Chandrashekar, who faces charges of extortion amounting to a massive ₹ 200 crore. The ED is probing the case for some time now, and Jacqueline was named an accused in the supplementary charge sheet filed in a Delhi court.
The ED found out that Chandrashekar used the allegedly swindled money to give costly gifts to Fernandez. Apparently, the gifts are worth over ₹ 5 crores. The ED claimed that Jacqueline was aware that the gifts were bought from the proceeds of the crime.
In a statement given by ED, it is learned that “Sukesh Chandrasekhar had given various gifts worth ₹ 5.71 crores to Jacqueline Fernandez from the proceeds of crime generated by criminal activities including extortion. Chandrasekhar had put Pinky Irani, his long-time associate, and co-accused in this case, to deliver the said gifts to her.”
Already, the ED had attached assets belonging to the actor and had also questioned her. With these latest developments, it looks like there is more trouble waiting for Jacqueline.
