Money laundering case: Jacqueline Fernandez stopped at Mumbai Airport
Mumbai: Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez was stopped at Mumbai international airport by immigration officials over a Rs. 200 crore money laundering case, media reports said on Sunday.

The Enforcement Directorate filed a chargesheet in a Delhi court naming Sukesh Chandrashekhar and mentioned the involvement of actors Jacqueline Fernandez, Nora Fatehi among others.
