On April 17, the Delhi court had issued a notice to the ED after Jacqueline Fernandez's legal team filed the application seeking to turn approver in the case. She has been under the scanner for some time and was questioned multiple times during the investigation. She was later named as an accused in a supplementary charge sheet filed by the agency.

Actor Jacqueline Fernandez’s plea to turn approver in the high-profile Rs 200 crore money laundering case linked to alleged conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar has been deferred, with the court granting the Enforcement Directorate (ED) more time to respond. The matter came up before the Patiala House Court in Delhi, where the ED sought additional time to file its reply.

According to ANI, the agency described the actor’s application as “vague” and stated that it needed time to examine the details before submitting its response. Special Judge Prashant Sharma has now listed the case for further hearing on May 8.
