The actress stated prior commitments and requested a date after 15 days, thus Delhi Police postponed the questioning that was supposed to take place on Monday. She was requested to join the probe on Wednesday, but Delhi Police didn’t give her any notice.
This is the third time that Fernandez has received a summons from the police to participate in the investigation. Jacqueline was given a new summons, ordering her to appear on September 14 at the EOW office at Mandir Marg around 11:00 am, a senior police officer informed to ANI.
Jacqueline is mentioned in the chargesheet for money laundering cases involving Sukesh by the Enforcement Directorate (ED). According to the ED chargesheet, Fernandez was aware of Sukesh’s participation in criminal matters, but she chose to ignore it and engaged in financial dealings with him. The ED had filed a money laundering case in the alleged scheme based on the FIR filed by the Delhi Police. ED had previously claimed that Fernandez’s testimonies, in which she acknowledged receiving gifts from Chandrashekar, were taped on August 30 and October 20, 2021.
