Mumbai, May 30, 2022: Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez has been allowed by the court to travel abroad to attend the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) awards. The actress can travel to Abu Dhabi between May 31 to June 6.
The actress was banned from leaving India by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) as she is being investigated by the agency in the Rs 200-crore extortion case involving conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar.
The actress has submitted details about the hotel she will be staying at while she’s in Abu Dhabi. She will also furnish her itinerary to the authorities.
On Saturday, the court suspended the Look Out Circular (LOC) against Jacqueline Fernandez and granted her permission to travel to Abu Dhabi from May 31 to June 6. She has also been asked to submit a deposit to the tune of Rs 50 lakh as surety.
The court order added that the actress shall inform the investigating agency about her return.
Jacqueline Fernandez had sought permission from a Delhi court to travel to Abu Dhabi to attend the IIFA awards. She had later withdrawn her application to travel abroad after the ED informed the court that the reasons cited by her to travel to foreign countries are false.
On May 28, the court allowed the actress to travel to Dubai for IIFA awards.
In December last year, the actress, who is being probed by the ED, was stopped by the immigration authorities at the Mumbai International Airport from going outside the country based on a look-out circular (LoC) issued against her by the ED.
Recently, Jacqueline’s assets worth Rs 7.27 crore were attached by the ED. It is alleged that conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar sent gifts worth crores to Jacqueline Fernandez using the money he extorted from a Delhi businessman’s wife.
