Nora Fatehi is badly trapped in the affair of taking gifts from Conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar

New Delhi: A day after Jacqueline Fernandez was questioned for eight hours, actress Nora Fatehi appeared before the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of Delhi Police in connection with the Rs 200 crore extortion case filed against alleged conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar. 

The actress was questioned for five hours. Nora was called so that she could be interrogated with Pinky Irani, who is reportedly the aide of Sukesh Chandrashekhar. Irani introduced Jacqueline Fernandez and other actresses to the conman.   

This is for the second time that Nora was summoned for questioning in the case. Earlier, on September 2, Fatehi was interrogated for around eight hours and asked around 50 questions.    

 

Ravindra Yadav, Special Commissioner of Police - Crime and EoW, had then told ANI that though the actress had cooperated with the probe, several questions remained unanswered. 

"She was cooperating during the investigation but there are some questions whose answers have not been found yet and there might be a need to inquire her again. We were looking for whatever strings were connected to the case. Including the one who received the gifts, now they were ignorant (about criminal background) or were involved in the actual crime, their investigation is going on..." he had told ANI. 

On Wednesday, Jacqueline Fernandez and Pinki Irani were questioned for around eight hours. While Pinki was summoned again on Thursday, Jacqueline will also be called again for the second round of questioning. 

According to ANI, Delhi Police had prepared a questionnaire of 100 questions for Jacqueline. The questions were reportedly based on her relationship with Sukesh and the gifts she got from him, regarding how many times she had met or contacted Sukesh over the phone during that period.     

As per the enforcement directorate, both Nora and Jacqueline received luxury cars and expensive gifts from Sukesh. 

The Enforcement Directorate had named Jacqueline Fernandez as accused in the supplementary chargesheet as a beneficiary of the extortion money. The chargesheet reportedly mentions that the actor was aware that Sukesh Chandrashekhar was a criminal and an extortionist.   

Chandrashekhar was arrested for allegedly defrauding and extorting several high-profile individuals, including Aditi Singh, the wife of former Fortis Healthcare promoter Shivinder Mohan Singh.  

In April last year, Chandrashekhar was arrested in another money laundering case linked to the 2017 Election Commission bribery case, which allegedly involved a former AIADMK leader among others.
