In December last year, the ED filed a charge sheet under the PMLA Act naming a few Bollywood actors, including Jacqueline as witnesses in the conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar's money laundering case.
New Delhi: There seems to be more trouble brewing for actress Jacqueline Fernandez in the Sukesh Chandrasekhar case. The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has attached Rs 7 cr worth assets of the actress in the money-laundering probe against her.
Reports suggest that the attached property is a fixed deposit.
Some gifts and fixed deposits are understood to have been attached by the federal probe agency after a provisional order was issued by it under sections of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) as per PTI.
The 36-year-old actor is a Sri Lankan national and she has been questioned in this case by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) a number of times.
It is alleged that Chandrashekhar to purchase gifts for Fernandez used illegal money, extorted by cheating high-profile people including former Fortis Healthcare promoter Shivinder Mohan Singh's wife Aditi Singh.
