According to a report in the Hindustan Times, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) mentioned in his supplementary chargesheet at the Patiala House court that the actress, Jacqueline Fernandez is termed as 'accused' in the 200-crore money laundering case against Sukesh Chandrasekhar. The ED stated in the chargesheet that the actress was very much aware of Sukesh's criminal past and the frauds he has been involved in and still chose to receive expensive gifts from him. Not only this, but the chargesheet submitted to the court also stated that Jacqueline has told a false story to the investigative team. The ED said:
"Directly or indirectly involved in the proceeds of crime and acquired, possessed & used part proceeds of crime. Cooked up a false story. Thus, it can be safely concluded that the lure of money ensured that the criminal history of the person she was engaging with did not matter.”
Going further in the chargesheet, the Enforcement Directorate also stated that Jacqueline Fernandez and even her family members benefited from her link with the conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar. In the chargesheet it is mentioned that Sukesh had allegedly transferred a sum of USD 172,913 to the bank account of Jacqueline's sister, Geraldine J Walker. Apart from this, ED also added that a sum of 26,470 Australian Dollars was allegedly transferred to Jacqueline's brother, Warren Fernandez. The chargesheet mentioned:
"She (Jacqueline) consciously chose to overlook his criminal past and continued to indulge in financial transactions with him (Sukesh). Not only her but her family members and friends have benefited out of the relationship financially.”
