Surprise Raid At Sukesh Chandrasekhar’s Cell: Prison Department Recovers Cash And Other Expensive Belongings

A surprise raid was conducted inside the cell of Sukesh Chandrasekhar’s jail cell. According to the Prison Department, the conman was living a “lavish” life inside the Mandoli Jail in Delhi. Jail officials said Wednesday that they recovered cash, jeans worth Rs 80,000, and Gucci footwear worth lakhs from Sukesh’s cell.

The Leaked Footage

Leaked CCTV footage from the jail shows jail officials conducting a raid in his cell and Sukesh crying as they take his expensive belongings. In the video, five to seven personnel are seen entering Sukesh’s cell as he is resting. They start opening the bags and conducting the raid as Sukesh is seen standing in a corner. In another video, he is seen weeping. Based on reports, Gucci slippers worth Rs 1.5 lakh and two jeans worth Rs 80 thousand were recovered from Sukesh’s cell in Mandoli jail.

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has booked Sukesh on charges of money laundering and committing fraud against the wife of ex-Religare promoter Malvinder Singh. He is also involved in the Rs 200 crore money laundering case against the wife of Shivinder Singh. Bollywood actors Nora Fatehi and Jacqueline Fernandes have been questioned multiple times in connection with this case. The Enforcement Directorate had on February 16 arrested Chandrashekhar in a money laundering case linked to deceiving former Religare promoter Malvinder Singh’s wife by posing as Union home and law secretaries. This is the third money laundering case in which the ED has arrested Chandrashekhar. The other two cases relate to Chandrashekar allegedly deceiving Aditi Singh, the wife of Malvinder Singh’s brother Shivinder Singh, of Rs 200 crore and to the purported bribing of Election Commission officials to get the AIADMK’s ‘two leaves symbol for the V K Sasikala faction.
