Delhi court lists Nora Fatehi's defamation case against Jacqueline for Jan 21

MUMBAI : The Patiala House court has listed the defamation case filed by Bollywood actor Nora Fatehi against actor Jacqueline Fernandez for hearing on January 21.

The Chief Metropolitan Magistrate (CMM) of Patiala House court transferred the defamation case to Metropolitan Magistrate Kapil Gupta, who listed it for next month.

On December 12, Nora had filed a defamation case in a court here against Jacqueline, alleging that the latter made defamatory allegations against her for "malicious reasons" and to destroy her career.

According to Nora, Jacqueline sought to criminally defame her in order to destroy her career to further her own interests, since they are both working in the same industry and have similar backgrounds, amongst other reasons.

Contending that her image is being tarnished, she, stressing that artistes' career is solely based on their reputation, had alleged that defamatory remarks were made against her by Jacqueline to ensure her financial, social, and personal downfall.

In the complaint accessed by IANS, Nora had also claimed that Jacqueline has also maliciously attempted to absolve herself from her actions in another criminal proceedings which are absolutely unrelated to her.

"Jacqueline Fernandez is also an actress, and is pretty well known in the film industry. She has also been made an accused in the Sukesh Chandrashekhar Rs 200 crore money-laundering case by the Enforcement Directorate. That the defamatory imputations were made by Fernandez due to malicious reasons. Apart from that, Fernandez sought to criminally defame the complainant in order to destroy her career to further her own interests since she is also in Bollywood," read the complaint moved by Nora through her counsel advocate Vikram Chauhan.

Nora had further alleged that Jacqueline made a false statement against her despite being an actress too.

She "has unnecessarily dragged and defamed me as I am in the same industry. She is fully aware that the business of any artiste and their career is solely based on their reputation. This clearly establishes that the said imputation has been made with the intention and knowledge that such imputation will harm the reputation of the complainant," her plea read.

She had also accused a few media firms for quoting Jacqueline which lowered her reputation in the same plea.

On December 2, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) had questioned Nora regarding conman Chandrashekhar's money laundering case.

Both actresses had recorded their statement as witness in the case.

Earlier, fixed deposits worth Rs 7.2 crore belonging to Jacqueline were attached by the ED, which termed these gifts and properties as proceeds of crime received by the actress.

In February, the ED filed its first supplementary prosecution complaint against Chandrashekhar's aide Pinky Irani, who introduced him to Bollywood actresses.

It had been alleged in the charge sheet that Irani used to choose costly gifts for Jacqueline and later used to drop it at her house after the payments were made by Chandrashekhar.
