ED summons Jacqueline Fernandez in money laundering case on Sept 25

Mumbai/New Delhi/IBNS: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has summoned Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez in connection with a money laundering case, media reports said.

She has been asked to appear before the ED in New Delhi on Sept 25.

The money laundering probe is in connection with an alleged multi-crore extortion racket operated by one Sukesh Chandrashekar, who is also an accused in a bribery case involving the Election Commission.

It is learnt Jacqueline, who was quizzed by the ED last month, was a victim of the same racket worth Rs. 200 crore.

On Aug 24, the ED had conducted raids and seized a sea-facing bungalow in Chennai, Rs. 82.5 lakh cash and over a dozen luxurious cars in connection with the money laundering probe against Chandrashekar.

The case is based on an FIR of the Delhi police's economic offences wing against him and others in a range of matters involving alleged criminal conspiracy, cheating and extortion to the tune of about Rs. 200 crore.
