Enforcement Directorate has filed a supplementary charge sheet in the Rs 200 crore extortion case against conman Sukesh Chandrashekar, naming Bollywood actress Jacqueline as an offender. In connection with the money laundering case, Jacqueline has been called upon multiple times by the Enforcement Directorate.
The media had previously been informed by Sukesh’s attorney that the actress was supposedly dating Sukesh. Jacqueline’s team later denied that she had any connection to Sukesh. In April, the agency provisionally attached Rs 7.27 crore of Jacqueline’s cash under the PMLA (PMLA).

In June, as the agency was still tracking down the case’s remaining stolen money, she was served with a summons to give a recorded statement. The organization questioned her for eight hours straight. The agency claimed that her fixed deposit accounts totaling Rs 7.12 crore and her cash accounts totaling Rs 15 lakh constituted “proceeds of crime,” and therefore issued a preliminary order to seize these assets.
It has been reported that Sukesh Chandrasekhar had lavished Jacqueline Fernandez with presents totaling Rs 5.71 crore, money obtained through illegal means such as extortion. According to a statement released by the ED, “Chandrasekhar had put Pinky Irani, his long-time acquaintance, and co-accused in this case to deliver the said presents to her.”
