Sri Lankan beauty Jacqueline Fernandez is having a tough time since August last year. After getting associated with multimillionaire conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar, she is facing with the extortion and money-laundering case. Recently, Fernandez was presented before a Delhi court post which the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has opposed her bail plea. The ED has claimed that the Kick actress tampered evidences besides trying to flee the country.

“During the investigation it emerged that Jacqueline enjoyed the proceeds of crime which the main accused (Sukesh Chandrashekhar and Leena Maria Paul) obtained by the route of extortion from Aditi (wife of former Fortis Healthcare promoter Shivinder Singh). She made an abortive bid to flee the country,” said ED.

“She not only used and enjoyed the proceeds of crime herself but also shared that with her family members staying abroad while knowing very well that the money and gifts showered by Chandrasekar were nothing but proceeds of crime not earned by him through any genuine source. An amount of Rs 7,12,24,767 had been identified till now as proceed of crime and the same was attached,” the ED stated further.

 

“She admitted deleting crucial evidence on her phone and further had told others to delete the evidence which amounts to tampering of evidence. She also tried to flee abroad,” asserted ED.

The ED also complained about Jacqueline not cooperating with the investigation team and always admitting to her crimes after being presented with evidences. Currently, the actress is on interim bail. The court has extended the same till the next court hearing.

On the work front, Jacqueline Fernandez recently appeared in Akshay Kumar starrer Ram Setu. She also has Cirkus with Ranveer Singh and Crakk with Vidyut Jamwal in pipeline.
