Money Laundering Probe: Jacqueline Fernandez To Appear Before ED Today

The ED has summoned Bollywood actor Jacqueline Fernandez for questioning on Wednesday in connection with a ₹200-crore money laundering case involving conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar.

The actor has been interrogated multiple times by the federal agency as part of an investigation into alleged fraud targeting prominent individuals, including the wives of ex-Ranbaxy promoters Shivinder Singh and Malvinder Singh.

The ED has accused Chandrashekhar of defrauding the wives of the Singh brothers and using the “proceeds of crime” to buy gifts for Jacqueline Fernandez.

According to a 2022 chargesheet, the probe agency asserted that despite being aware of his criminal background, the actor accepted valuables, jewelry, and expensive gifts from Chandrashekhar.

Jacqueline Fernandez has denied any knowledge of Chandrashekhar’s alleged criminal activities, maintaining her innocence.
