In its response submitted to the court, the agency argued that Jacqueline had maintained consistent communication with Sukesh even after allegedly becoming aware of his criminal history.<\/p>\n<p>In line with the ED, the actor continued to receive expensive gifts, luxury items, and other advantages that were allegedly sourced from proceeds connected to the cash laundering investigation. The agency reportedly informed the court that her prolonged interactions with Sukesh through multiple communication channels weakened her claim of being an unaware or innocent participant within the matter.<\/p>\n<p>The ED further stated in its submission that Jacqueline and a few of her relations allegedly continued to enjoy the advantages obtained from the proceeds of crime. The agency claimed this reflected a conscious disregard regarding the origin of the funds and suggested energetic involvement within the laundering process.<\/p>\n<p>Jacqueline Fernandez was earlier named as a co-accused within the case after investigators alleged that she accepted gifts purchased using money linked to the alleged Rs 200 crore extortion racket. Sukesh Chandrashekhar is accused of extorting the cash from Aditi Singh, wife of former Fortis Healthcare promoter Shivinder Singh.<\/p>\n<p>The cash laundering investigation stems from a separate case registered by the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of Delhi Police in August 2022. Sukesh allegedly impersonated a senior government official, claiming to be the Union law secretary, while contacting Aditi Singh with guarantees related to securing bail for her jailed husband.<\/p>\n<p>Under Indian criminal law, an accused individual who agrees to cooperate with the prosecution and testify in a case can seek pardon from the court and grow to be an approver under Section 306 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC).<\/p>\n<p>Before filing its detailed written response, the ED had also reportedly described Jacqueline Fernandez\u2019s plea as \u201cvague\u201d during earlier court proceedings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read<\/strong>: Jacqueline Fernandez faces setback as ED opposes her plea to grow to be approver in Rs. 200 crore money laundering case linked to Sukesh Chandrasekhar<\/p>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2 alt=\"Bollywood News - Live Updates\" title=\"Bollywood News - Live Updates\" style=\"font-size: 0.9rem;\">BOLLYWOOD NEWS &#8211; LIVE UPDATES<\/h2>\n<p>Catch us for up to date Bollywood News, Latest Bollywood Movies update, Box office collection, Latest Movies Release , Bollywood News Hindi, Entertainment News, Bollywood Live News Today &#038; Upcoming Movies 2026 and stay updated with latest hindi movies only on Bollywood Hungama.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8216;); }); Jacqueline Fernandez has withdrawn her plea in search of to grow to be an approver in the continued Rs 200 crore money laundering case linked to alleged conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar.
