A 200 crore extortion case involving Sukesh Chandrasekhar is now being investigated while he is incarcerated. The ED has also named Jacqueline, who was rumoured to be dating him, as an accused party in the case.

Sukesh was accused by the ED of using money extorted from prominent individuals, including former Fortis Healthcare promoter Shivinder Mohan Singh’s wife Aditi Singh, to buy gifts for Jacqueline. Additionally, the agency claims that the actress “had continuously changed her opinion” regarding the gifts she received from Sukesh in the chargesheet. She did disclose some information, according to the ED, but she still disputes “some assets purchased by Sukesh for her and the inquiry on that aspect is ongoing.”

Her relationship with Sukesh is also taken into account in the chargesheet, demonstrating that she, “committed the offence of money laundering as defined under section 3 of PMLA for knowingly using and possessing the proceeds of crime”.

The ED has called the Murder 2 actress up and questioned her multiple times over the case. She has always cooperated with the investigation agencies and turned up to all summonses thus far, according to attorney Prashant Patil, who appeared on the actor’s behalf. To the best of her ability, “She has handed over all the information to the best of her ability to the ED,” he stated.

In addition to the 15 lakh dollars in cash, the ED temporarily attached the actor’s finances under the PMLA in April because it deemed them to be “proceeds of crime.” The actor argued that her fixed deposits were made with her own money, not Sukesh’s gifts, in her response to the court through her legal team.

The Kick actress hasn’t made any public comments on the situation yet, despite sharing a mysterious social media post after being identified as an accused in the case. It’ll all be okay, she wrote in a social media message dated August 17 that was dedicated to “dear myself.”
