Nora Fatehi records statement in defamation case against Jacqueline Fernandez: More details

Actor Nora Fatehi recorded her statement in the defamation case filed by her against actor Jacqueline Fernandez at Delhi’s Patiala House Court on July 31.

In her statement, she claimed that she was made a ‘scapegoat’ in a money laundering case against conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar.

‘They have called me a gold digger and accused me of having a relationship with a con artist (Sukesh Chandrasekhar) and included my name in an ongoing criminal case to divert attention away from them,’ Nora told the court.

‘The reason why I’m filing this case is that the ongoing ED case involving con artist Sukesh, with which I have nothing to do, neither do I know these people,’ Fatehi said.

‘I was called at an event as a chief guest. I have been made a scapegoat in this case in the media, to safeguard certain people’s image, because I am an outsider and I’m alone in this country,’ she added.

Nora Fatehi further demanded compensation for all damage done to her ‘career and reputation, which I’ve built relentlessly over the last eight years.’

Fatehi recorded her statement under 164 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) before the magistrate.

Jacqueline Fernandez is an alleged accused in a Rs 200 crore money laundering case lodged against Chandrasekhar by Enforcement Directorate (ED). In the extortion case against Chandrashekar, Nora Fatehi and Chahatt Khanna are witnesses and the case is being probed by Delhi Police.
