December 24, 2021: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has prepared a list of as many as five bollywood actresses for their alleged links with conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar. These actors allegedly received either gifts or were in direct or indirect contact with Sukesh.

 

Apart from these five actresses, Jacqueline Fernandez and Nora Fatehi are already under the ED scanner.

The probe agency will summon these five actresses very soon. As of now, they will be treated as witnesses in the case.

The ED will investigate if these actors were aware of the real identity of Sukesh Chandrashekhar and will inquire as to why they received the gifts.

Meanwhile, the ED is expected to attach the gifts given to actors Jacqueline Fernandez and Nora Fatehi by conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar, according to sources.

ED officials will soon initiate the process of attaching the gifts - luxury cars, diamonds and bags, in possession of Fernandez and Fatehi, in order to recover the proceeds of crime.

It is suspected that gifts worth more than Rs 10 crore were given to Jacqueline Fernandez while Nora Fatehi was gifted a BMW car. These gifts were allegedly bought using extorted money, making them proceeds of crime.

Conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar is accused of extorting Rs 200 crore from a businessman’s wife between June 2020 and May 2021.
