Delhi court grants Jacqueline Fernandez bail in ₹200-cr extortion case

A Delhi court Monday granted interim bail to actor Jacqueline Fernandez in a Rs 200 crore extortion case against alleged conman Sukesh Chandrashekar.

Special Judge Shailendra Malik granted Fernandez the relief on a personal bond of Rs 50,000 and scheduled the next hearing in the case for October 22. Chandrashekar had allegedly extorted Rs 200 crore from the wife of former Fortis Healthcare promoter Shivinder Singh.

On August 31, predecessor judge Praveen Singh had taken cognisance of a supplementary charge sheet filed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and asked Fernandez to appear before the court.

However, Fernandez joined the probe only after the police issued a third summon to her. On September 14, she was questioned for eight hours at the Economic Offences Wing’s Mandir Marg office in connection with the extortion case.

The actor has been named as an accused in the supplementary chargesheet. However, a chargesheet and a supplementary chargesheet that the ED had earlier filed, mentioned the details of the statements recorded by Fernandez and fellow actor Nora Fatehi.

According to the ED, both Fernandez and Fatehi, who were interrogated separately on different dates, have admitted to receiving luxury cars and other expensive gifts from Chandrashekar.
