Jacqueline Fernandez is in the headlines for her alleged involvement in Rs 200 crore extortion case involving conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar. The actress has appeared before the Court and also Enforcement Directorate several times. And today in the hearing of the same case, the Delhi Court has reserved the order regarding her bail, extending interim protection to her until the next hearing in the case. The Court however said that an order may be passed as early as Friday in the matter.
Conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar was also produced before the Court today where the Court told the counsels that they want to go to trial in the case soon. The ED also placed their arguments before the Delhi Court. As mentioned in The Times of India, Jacqueline’s lawyer Prashant Patil that the actress was summoned by the Special Court in Delhi after the Enforcement Directorate (ED) filed a complaint against her. “The Court had granted interim bail to her on the first date of appearance. Today, the matter was kept for a final hearing of the bail application moved by Jacqueline. The ED opposed the bail application. Now the matter is listed tomorrow for the order to be passed,” he was quoted saying.
Meanwhile, a video of Jacqueline in which she was seen entering the court has gone viral.
