New Delhi: Bollywood Actor Nora Fatehi appeared for questioning before the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of Delhi Police in connection with the alleged ₹200 crore money laundering case involving conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar.
She was questioned at the Mandir Marg office, a day after the eight hours of questioning of Bollywood actor Jacqueline Fernandez in connection with the same case.
Nora Fatehi was earlier questioned for more than nine hours by EOW in connection with the case on September 2. In that round of questioning, she was roughly asked around 50 questions.
Earlier, Ravindra Yadav, Special Commissioner of Police, Crime, and EOW said that the actor cooperated with the investigation but some questions are left to be answered.
He further added that “It was found that some people worked around him (Sukesh Chandrashekhar) and he used to first contact actresses. When they were more friendly, he tried to entice them with expensive gifts. It seems some people realized but continued out of greed,”.
Sukesh Chandrashekhar has been accused of running an extortion racket worth Rs 200 crore when he was lodged in Rohini jail, from Aditi Singh, the wife of jailed former Ranbaxy owner Shivinder Singh, posing as officials from the union law ministry and the PMO, on the pretext of getting her husband out on bail.
Sukesh Chandrashekhar, a native of Bengaluru in Karnataka, is currently lodged in a Delhi jail and faces over 10 criminal cases registered against him.
