In a recent development the Delhi High Court dismissed Jacqueline Fernandez’s plea to quash the FIR and the second supplementary chargesheet filed against her in the Rs. 200 cr money laundering case linked to alleged conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar.
Jacqueline had also requested a stay on the ongoing trial court proceedings, but the court, led by Justice Anish Dayal, rejected it.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) opposed her petition, stating it was not maintainable. They pointed out that a special court had already taken cognisance of the chargesheet and found a case against her, which Jacqueline hadn’t challenged.
The ED claims Jacqueline received lavish gifts from Sukesh, purchased with money extorted from Aditi Singh, the wife of a businessman.
Jacqueline’s legal team argued she didn’t know the source of the gifts and had no criminal intent. With the High Court rejecting her plea, the case will now proceed in the Delhi trial court.
