• This is the second time that the actress has been summoned for questioning by Delhi Police for her alleged role in the case

Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez on Monday appeared before the Economic Offences Wing in connection with an investigation related to an extortion case linked to alleged conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar, officials said.  
This is the second time that the actress has been summoned for questioning by Delhi Police for her alleged role in the case, officials said.  

A senior police officer said Fernandez has joined the probe and is being questioned at the office of Economic Offences Wing on Mandir Marg.  

Last Wednesday, Fernandez was quizzed for over eight hours along with Pinki Irani, the person who allegedly introduced the actress to Chandrashekhar.  

Investigation had revealed that Chandrashekhar had on his birthday offered a motorcycle to Fernandez’s agent Prashant but he had declined the offer. All the same, Chandrashekhar had left the two-wheeler and its keys at Prashant’s place, police had said earlier. The bike was seized, they added.  

Chandrashekhar, who is currently in jail in New Delhi, is accused of cheating many people, including high-profile individuals such as former Fortis Healthcare promoter Shivinder Mohan Singh’s wife Aditi Singh.
