Sukesh Chandrashekhar, accused in the multi-crore fraud case, spoofed the mobile number of Home Minister Amit Shah and told himself to be the relative of late Mrs. Jayalalitha to implicate Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez. By spoofing the number of the Home Minister itself, he spoke as Shekhar. These revelations have been made by the ED in its charge sheet filed in this case.
Sukesh and Jacqueline
It has also been revealed in this case that Sukesh had given a gift of crores to Jacqueline Fernandez. Jacqueline has also accepted the gift and contact. The Enforcement Directorate, in its chargesheet filed in the money laundering case against fraud Sukesh Chandrashekhar, has said that actress Jacqueline Fernandez was not inclined to talk to Sukesh, so she allegedly introduced himself as a high official of the Union Ministry to the actress.
The ED has filed a chargesheet in Patiala House Court against Sukesh for allegedly duping Aditi Singh, wife of former Ranbaxy promoter Shivinder Singh, to the tune of Rs 200 crore. It has been claimed in the chargesheet that Sukesh gave expensive gifts to Fernandes and actress Nora Fatehi, which were bought from the fraudulent proceeds. The chargesheet further states that Chandrashekhar tried to contact Fernandes through her make-up artist and when he refused, he made a “spoof call” and introduced himself as a “very important person in the government”.
Jacqueline Fernandes
The ED said- “He was in touch with Fernandes till his arrest and had given several gifts to Jacqueline and her family members. Private jet was also arranged from his side”. The ED claimed that Fernandes had admitted to receiving several gifts during her interrogation.
The ED further said that Sukesh had gifted a BMW car to another Bollywood actress Nora Fatehi in December 2020. The ED said Sukesh’s wife Leena Maria Paul had claimed that she and her husband were fans of Fatehi and had gifted a new BMW car to Fatehi as a love.
