The Enforcement Directorate alleged in its charge sheet that Bollywood actor Jacqueline Fernandez was aware of conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar’s criminal history and “cooked up a false story” to evade investigations in a multi-crore money laundering case.
The Enforcement Directorate states in the chargesheet seen by the reporter that Jacqueline Fernandez’s claim that she was unaware of Sukesh Chandrashekhar’s cases is fake.
“Jacqueline Fernandez was well aware about the criminal antecedents of Sukesh Chandrashekhar and also the fact that Leena Maria Paul is his wife in February 2021,” the chargesheet states.
“She consciously chose to overlook his criminal past and continued to indulge in financial transactions with him,” the report adds.
In February 2021, her hair stylist Shaan told her about Sukesh Chandrashekhar’s identity and criminal past.
“Despite this, Jacqueline Fernandez ignored this fact and continued the relationship with Sukesh and also received, used and enjoyed the financial benefits from Sukesh, which are nothing but proceeds of crime,” the agency states.
Jacqueline Fernandez was identified as an accused earlier this month by the Enforcement Directorate, which is investigating the money trail in a 200 crore extortion case against the conman. According to the chargesheet, Jacqueline Fernandez admitted to receiving five watches, 20 pieces of jewellery, 65 pairs of shoes, 47 outfits, 32 purses, 4 Hermes bags, nine artworks, and one Versace crockery set as gifts from the conman.
According to the agency, Sukesh Chandrashekhar gave two cars to Jacqueline Fernandez’s parents in April 2021, which she did not disclose during her questioning. She only admitted Sukesh had bought her a property in Welgana, Sri Lanka, after being faced with evidence.
“Despite being fully aware of his criminal history and that he is lodged in Tihar Jail, Jacqueline Fernendez was knowingly a party or actually involved in the process (money laundering) by using or enjoying the proceeds of crime by the way of valuable gifts,” according to the agency. She allegedly also asked her employees to erase data linked to the conman from their phones.
According to the Enforcement Directorate, Jacqueline Fernandez attempted to cover up by repeatedly claiming that she was a victim of Sukesh. “However, during investigation she has failed to provide any substantial material to establish the victimisation by Sukesh,” the chargesheet states.
According to the FBI, she wiped her phone clean, erasing important data, and this constituted evidence tampering. According to the chargesheet, Chandrashekhar provided the actor 7.12 crore – 1.26 crore to her sister in the United States, 15 lakh to her brother in Australia, and 5.71 crore in gifts.
“The lure of money ensured that the criminal history of the person Jacqueline Fernandez was engaging with did not matter,” the Enforcement Directorate writes in its chargesheet.
When Jacqueline Fernandez was interrogated alongside the conman, she admitted to receiving four bags from Gucci, Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Dior, three shoes from Louis Vuitton and Louboutin, two Gucci outfits, perfumes, four cats, a Mini Cooper, two diamond earrings, and a multi coloured diamond bracelet from him.
The actor, known for films such as “Kick,” “Bhoot Police,” and “Vikrant Rona,” is the sole one listed in a supplementary chargesheet. She claims she was duped and is a victim of a broader criminal plot. The Delhi Police detained Sukesh Chandrashekhar for allegedly extorting Rs. 215 crore from Aditi Singh and Shivender Singh, former promoters of pharmaceutical company Ranbaxy.
