The Delhi ✱Police's Economic Offences Wing is likely to question Bollywood actor Jacqueline Fernandez on Monday in connection with an extortion case linked to alleged conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar.

This is the sꦬecond time that she has been summoned for questioning🧜 by Delhi Police for her alleged role in the case, officials said.

A ൲senior police officer said Fernandez has be𒈔en asked to join the probe at 11 am at the office of Economic Offences Wing on Mandir Marg.

"We need to scrutinise certain documents and also question her further in connection with the case,&quo♚t; he said.

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

Investigation had revealed that Chandrashekhar had offered a motorcycle to Fernandez's ag🥀ent Prashant on his birthday but he declined to take it. However, Chandrashekhar left the two-wheeler and its keys at Prashant's place, police had said earlier, adding the vehicle was seized.

Chandrashekhar, who is currently in jail, is accused of cheating many people, including high-profile individuals such as former Fortis Heal🔥thcare promoter Shivinder Mohan Singh's wife Aditi Sin🥃gh.

On August 17, the Enforcement Directorate filed a chargesheet naming Fernandez as an accused in a multi-crore mon꧅ey launderin🏅g case linked to Chandrashekhar.

According to the ED, Fernandez and another Bollywood actor Nora Fatehi received luxury cars and other expens🅠ive gifts from him.
