Nora Fatehi denies knowing about Conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar’s criminal history

Nora Fatehi was questioned by the Delhi Police’s Economic Offences Wing on Friday in connection with the money laundering case involving jailed conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar. In response to approximately 50 questions, Nora stated that she was unaware of Sukesh’s criminal history and had no relationship with an industry colleague and accused in the case, Jacqueline Fernandez.

She was said to be cooperating with the investigators, according to a leading news portal. Nora was asked over 50 questions, including what gifts she received, who she spoke with, where she met them, and so on. She stated that she and Jacqueline spoke to him (Sukesh Chandrashekhar) separately.

According to the agency, Nora stated that his (Sukesh) wife spoke to her for a nail art function and then frequently called her. They presented her with a BMW. She also stated that she was unaware of Sukesh’s criminal history and that he had conversations with her manager and cousin but very few with her.

On October 14, Nora went to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) office to join the investigation into the same criminal case. Previously, Jacqueline stated in a plea before the PMLA Appellate Authority that it is surprising that some other celebrities, most notably Norah, were also duped by main accused Sukesh in the 200 crore extortion case.

Sukesh Chandrasekhar and actor Leena Maria Paul were sentenced to three days in ED custody in connection with a Rs 200 crore extortion case by a Delhi court. They were arrested under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) in connection with an extortion racket operating out of a Delhi jail.

Nora, along with Karan Johar and Madhuri Dixit, is a judge on the dance reality show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa. She is well-known for her hit Bollywood dance numbers. Jacqueline is also a famous Bollywood actor, appearing in films such as Race 3, Kick, and others.
