Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez has approached the Delhi High Court to seek the quashing of the Enforcement Directorate’s FIR in the Rs 200 crore money laundering case involving Sukesh Chandrasekhar. The petition, set for a hearing, also aims to quash the second supplementary charge sheet and related proceedings in the trial court. Fernandez claims to be an innocent victim of Chandrasekhar’s targeted attack, stating there is no evidence of her involvement in aiding money laundering. The charge sheet against her reportedly does not allege knowledge of Chandrasekhar’s activities in extorting money from complainant Aditi Singh.
The Delhi Police previously registered an FIR against Chandrasekhar for duping the spouses of former Ranbaxy promoters, Shivinder Singh and Malvinder Singh, of Rs 200 crore. Chandrasekhar and his wife, Leena Paulose, are facing money laundering charges registered by the Enforcement Directorate, with arrests made by Delhi Police and the invocation of the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act in the case. The police allege the use of hawala routes and shell companies to park money earned from proceeds of crime.
