Earlier, the ED had found that Sukesh had sent her gifts worth Rs 10 crore. The ED has so far attached assets of the actor worth more than Rs 7 crore under the PMLA (Prevention Of Money Laundering Act).

The 33-year-old con man is being investigated in over 32 criminal cases by several state police and three central agencies — CBI, Enforcement Directorate, and Income Tax.

Sukesh Chandrasekhar is accused of extorting Rs 215 crore from the wife of a Delhi businessman through spoof calls.

While Sukesh was lodged in a Delhi jail, he extorted money from the victim by pretending to be an officer from the PMO (Prime Minister’s Office), the Law Ministry, and the Home Ministry. Sukesh in the phone calls assured her that he would secure bail for the victim’s husband and get their pharmaceutical business running.

Besides that, Sukesh is also involved in a five-year-old cheating case involving politician TTV Dhinakaran. He was arrested by the ED in April this year.
