Sukesh Chandra Shekhar Case: Jacquline Fernandez gets Permission to Travel to Dubai

Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez granted her permission by Patiala House Court to travel to Dubai from January 27 to 30, to attend the PepsiCo India conference.

Jacquline moved an application in Patiala Housei court mentioning that she has been invited to attend the event in Dubai as a star performer for a concert scheduled on Sunday, January 29.

Fernandez is one of the accused in a Rs 200 Crore money laundering case also involving alleged conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar. She was granted regular bail in the case on November 15, 2022. Fernandez was not arrested in the case.

Additional Sessions Judge Shailendra Malick who had earlier posted the matter for Friday after the ED sought time to file a detailed reply to her application, gave the final court order on Friday.

During the court hearing, Fernandez’s lawyer argued that the actor needed to travel to Dubai as she was under a contractual obligation and could be sued over her absence at the event. The actor’s lawyer also told the Patiala House Court that the she has also been nominated for the Oscars recently which is a matter of pride for the country.
