Bad news for Nora Fatehi, Jacqueline Fernandez in money laundering case

Bollywood actress Nora Fatehi is summoned again by the Enforcement Directorate in a money laundering case. The ED has also summoned actress Jacqueline Fernandez in the same case again.

Nora has been asked to be present before the ED on Thursday, while Jacqueline Fernandez has been asked to appear before the ED on Friday (October 15).

Both Nora and Jacqueline have been summoned for questioning as part of an ongoing probe in a Rs 200-crore extortion racket involving conman conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar. It is to be noted that Sukesh is currently in ED's custody.

In August, Jacqueline was questioned as a witness in this case. "She is not an accused, but is being examined as a witness in the case against conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar," sources in the Enforcement Directorate had said then.

The FIR in this case was filed by Delhi Police’s Economic Offences Wing (EOW) against Sukesh and others over alleged criminal conspiracy, cheating, and extortion of about Rs 200 crore.

The ED had earlier recorded Jacqueline’s statement under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). The ED had said in August that it had seized a bungalow in Chennai, Rs 82.5 lakh in cash, 2kg gold, 16 luxury cars and other high-end items in connection with this case.
