A bench of Justices Dipankar Datta and Augustine George Masih is scheduled to hear her petition on Monday, September 22. The ED’s chargesheet, filed on August 17, 2022, claims Fernandez continued to accept lavish gifts from Chandrasekhar despite being aware of his criminal activities.

The agency alleged that she concealed receipts related to the crime and even used wiped-out data from her phone to hide evidence. The ED stated, “Fernandez admitted it after confrontation,” highlighting their suspicions about her involvement.

Fernandez, however, has denied the allegations, asserting she had no knowledge of Chandrasekhar’s criminal background. “I had no idea about his criminal activities,” she has maintained over the years. Despite her protests, the controversy surrounding her and Chandrasekhar remains intense, with their viral pictures from 2022 fueling widespread speculation. Even while Chandrasekhar remains in jail, reports suggest he continues to send her lavish gifts and love letters.

The ED’s statement further details, “Sukesh Chandrasekhar had given various gifts worth Rs 5.71 crore to Jacqueline Fernandez from the proceeds of criminal activities including extortion. Chandrasekhar used his long-time associate and co-accused Pinky Irani to deliver these gifts to her.”

Fernandez has been questioned multiple times by the ED, as well as by the Delhi Police’s Economic Offences Wing, and was named in a supplementary charge sheet filed by the authorities.
