The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has issued new summons once again to Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez after she skipped summons in connection with a Rs 200 crore extortion case, as per Times Now.
Reportedly, the actress was unable to present herself before the ED officials on Friday citing personal unavoidable reasons.
Previously, it was actress Nora Fatehi who was summoned and interrogated by the agency in the same case.
Reports suggest that the ED is currently looking into the possibility that money was invested abroad and it was led by Sukesh Chandrashekar, an accused in a bribery matter. Officials had raided Sukesh and his wife’s house previously. ED has also said that Bollywood celebs are likely to be active participants in this entire case.
The case is based on an FIR filed by Delhi Police’s Economic Offences Wing (EOW) against Sukesh and others over alleged criminal conspiracy, cheating, and extortion of about Rs 200 crore. Earlier, the ED officials had shared in a statement, “Sukesh Chandrasekhar is the mastermind of this fraud. He has been a part of the crime world since the age of 17. He has multiple FIRs against him and is presently lodged at the Rohini jail.” Reports suggest that Sukesh was in touch with Jacqueline through calls and messages and the ED wants to question the actress about the same.
Jacqueline was interrogated previously in the same matter last month.
