Jacqueliene Fernandez claims she was ‘unaware’ gifts received from conman Sukesh Chandrashekar were linked to Rs 200 crore money laundering

As a seasoned observer of the Bollywood scene, I find myself deeply intrigued by the ongoing saga involving Jacqueline Fernandez and the money laundering case. Having followed her career since her debut, it’s fascinating to see how this turn of events has unfolded.


As an ardent admirer, let me share this intriguing piece of news: In the persisting Rs 200 crore money laundering saga surrounding incarcerated swindler Sukesh Chandrasekhar, Jacqueline Fernandez’s legal team has vigorously argued in the Delhi High Court. They claim that my beloved Jacqueline was oblivious to the questionable origins of the presents she received, which are reportedly implicated in this case.

As reported by ANI, the latest court proceedings in the Delhi High Court involved Jacqueliene Fernandez’s legal representative presenting objections to the case file submitted against her.

It was asserted by her legal team that she had no part in money laundering operations, and they also stated that she was unaware that the gifts she got were linked to the suspected illegal earnings from crime.

At the hearing, Justice Anish Dayal posed a question, inquiring if it’s the duty of adults to be aware of the origin of the presents they get. The case will continue on November 26 for subsequent hearings.

Lawyer Siddharth Agrawal, speaking for Fernandez, stated that she wasn’t aware the presents, claimed to be from Sukesh Chandrasekhar, were bought with money illegally obtained from Aditi Singh. Agrawal stressed that the Enforcement Directorate (ED) did not imply that Fernandez intentionally accepted funds derived from criminal activity.

In other words, he added that although there may have been an oversight on her part, it wasn’t of a nature that would be considered a criminal oversight, so it wouldn’t be something that could be legally pursued.

The Defense Team for Fernandez argues that an article about Sukesh Chandrashekar’s activities published in a newspaper in February 2019, which the ED (Enforcement Directorate) asserts was not verified by Fernandez, should not be considered as valid evidence during the trial.

I’ve shared before that I was led astray by my co-defendant Pinky Irani, who persuaded me that Sukesh held substantial political ties and functioned as a political intermediary. However, as it turns out, this wasn’t the case.

As reported by her legal team, she ceased interacting with Sukesh following the publication of the article and claimed ignorance about the connection between the gifts she received and the criminal activity. They maintain that she played no part in any money laundering activities.

Sukesh Chandrasekhar has been consistently sending letters to Jacqueliene Fernandez from jail, expressing his affection for her. Recently, he revealed plans to invest an astounding $135 million in Hollywood projects for his “lady love.” He attributed the idea to advice he received from his “big brother,” Donald Trump.
