ED has also filed a charge sheet in the matter against Sukesh Chandrashekhar for allegedly duping Rs 200 crore from the wife of former Ranbaxy promoter Shivinder Singh.
The chats
And now, an alleged chat between Nora and Sukesh, discussing Range Rover has been leaked. "Do you like this?" Sukesh Chandrashekhar asked Nora Fatehi about a Range Rover, says India Today. "Yes, it's a nice rough use car. It's cute, it's a statement car," the report states Nora replying. "I will show you more options," the conman further tells Fatehi.
The report states the conman revealing that he gifted her (something) because he liked her and there was no other motive. "I would highly appreciate it if you could speak for a minute to clarify everything. I hope you or your agency are not wondering why this gift. I want to make it clear that it's not being given with any kind of motive, but only because when you like a person, you give them gifts. Doing it for that reason only, nothing else," India Today report quoted Sukesh saying.
The ED is investigating whether the two actresses were a part of the money laundering racket or were they the victims. Nora, on her part, has maintained that the car was gifted to her by the conman's wife for attending an event in Chennai.
