Jacqueline Fernandez’s FIR updates: ED opposes actress plea in Delhi HC!

Jacqueline Fernandez

Famous Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez requested the quashing of the FIR and supplementary chargesheet in the ₹200 crore money laundering case involving alleged conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar.

The Enforcement Directorate has denied kick actress Jacqueline Fernandez’s request to dismiss the ECIR (FIR) and supplementary chargesheet filed in the ₹200 Crore money laundering case against alleged conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar, stating that it is not maintainable. In its response, the ED stated that the investigation carried out by the ED under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) 2002 is distinct from the investigation conducted by police authorities for the commission of scheduled offenses. The accused in the offense of money laundering must be in addition and/or different from the accused of the predicate.

The plea contended that simply because the predicate agency chose to array the petitioner as a witness in the predicate offense does not imply that she has not committed money laundering, which is a separate and distinct offense.

Recently, the Delhi High Court ordered ED to respond to Jacqueline Fernandez’s petition. Earlier, ED had opposed Jacqueline’s plea, claiming that she continued to accept Sukesh’s gifts despite knowing his criminal history.
