Jacqline Fernandez asked the police commissioner to step in right away in her letter. It puts her safety in jeopardy, she claimed. Actress Jacqline Fernandez has reportedly alleged conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar for intimidating and harassing her while she was incarcerated. She brought the case before Delhi Police Commissioner Sanjay Arora, as per the Indian Express report. Additionally, Jacqueline forwarded the letter to the Crime Branch Special Commissioner of Police. To begin a preliminary investigation into the complaint, a specialized unit has been contacted.
Jacqueline wrote to the police chief a few days ago, titled “ Systemic failure in prosecution witness protection.” She described herself as a responsible citizen who unintentionally became involved in a case that has significant ramifications for the rule of law and the integrity of our legal system. In the midst of a terrifying ordeal of psychological pressure and targeted intimidation campaigns, I am writing to you as a prosecution witness in a case registered with the special cell. While incarcerated in Mandoli Jail, an accused man going by the name Sukesh is threatening her in a public setting by using intimidating methods.
Jacqueline asked for quick action.
Jacqueline wrote to the police commissioner pleading with him to step in right away. She claimed that it puts her safety in danger and calls into question the fairness of the legal system. In order to protect Sukesh as a prosecution witness in a case under the Maharashtra Control of Organized Crime Act (MCOCA), she urged that a FIR under sections of the IPC be filed against her. These acts breach not just my personal rights but also the foundation of our legal system. The integrity and effectiveness of our legal institutions are being jeopardized by the erosion of the fundamental principle of witness protection.
She added that it is critical to examine every avenue of communication that the accused has and to put strict controls in place to stop future abuse. Jacqueline filed a request in December of last year with a Delhi Court to stop Sukesh from communicating with her via letters, messages or statements. Jacqueline is a witness in the Rs 200 crore money laundering and extortion case connected to Sukesh that is being looked into by the Economic Offences Wing (EOW).
She had portioned the court earlier in December to take prompt action against Sukesh for using her names in his messages, letters and statements. She claimed that Sukesh’s threats and intimidation had seriously upset her and she was afraid he would try to force her to withhold information from the court because she is a witness in Delhi police FIR.
