NEW DELHI: The hearing in a money laundering case involving Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez and multi-millionaire conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar, was postponed by a Delhi court on Thursday until December 12.
This morning, Fernandez made an appearance in the Patiala House court over the matter. The actress had previously received pre-arrest bail from the court on November 15.
Jacqueline had lately been included as an accused in the second additional charge sheet that the Enforcement Directorate (ED) had submitted. The court had given her temporary protection from arrest on September 26.
As witnesses in the case, Fernandes and Nora Fatehi, another well-known figure from Bollywood, have recorded their statements.
The ED seized 7.2 crore rupees' worth of Fernandez's property and fixed deposits. These presents and properties were described by the investigation agency as the actresses' "proceeds of crime."
An accused aide of Chandrashekhar who allegedly connected him to Bollywood actresses, Pinky Irani, was the subject of the ED's first supplemental charge sheet, which was filed in February.
In the charge sheet, it was claimed that Pinky used to pick out pricey presents for Jacqueline and deliver them to her house after Chandrashekhar had completed the payments.
The initial charge sheet, in this case, was filed by the investigating agency in December before Additional Sessions Judge Praveen Singh's court.
Chandrashekhar reportedly spent almost 20 crore on a variety of Bollywood stars and models. Some people had turned down his offerings.
