Caught On Camera: Conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar Seen 'Crying' Amid Luxury Items In Mandoli Jail

Chandrashekhar was arrested in another case of extortion and money laundering for allegedly duping ex-Religare promoter Malvinder Singh's wife Japna Singh of Rs 3.5 crore.

New Delhi: Conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar was apparently seen crying after luxury items were recovered from his cell in Mandoli jail after a video was shared by Mandoli jail administration. In the video shared by news agency ANI, the conman could be seen standing near a heap of recovered goods while appearing to be sobbing. 

Later some officials could be seen entering the cell who inspected the goods and frisked Chadrashekhar and his belongings. 

Last week, the conman was arrested in another case of extortion and money laundering. He has been arrested in another ECIR by ED for allegedly duping ex-Religare promoter Malvinder Singh's wife Japna Singh of Rs 3.5 crore.

Delhi’s Patiala House Court remanded him to nine days of Enforcement Directorate's custody.

Chandrashekhar is already in jail after the federal probe agency arrested him in 2021 in a case of alleged cheating and extorting money from some rich people, including individuals like former Fortis Healthcare promoter Shivinder Mohan Singh's wife Aditi Singh.

He is the key accused in a Rs 200 crore money laundering case. Sukesh Chandrashekhar and his wife, actress Leena Maria Paul, were arrested by the ED under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) over the alleged extortion racket being run from jail.

A number of women Bollywood actors and models, including Jacqueline Fernandez and Nora Fatehi, have been questioned in this 2021 case by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) for their alleged links to Chandrashekhar. 

From the age of 17, he started cheating people by imposting as senior government officers over calls. In 2007, even before he turned 18, he tried duping over 100 people on the pretext of getting their work done by the Bangalore Development Authority, by posing as a high-ranking bureaucrat. However, authorities succeeded in exposing him.
