Jacqueline Fernandez's lawyer on Nora Fatehi's defamation case: 'My client reserves right to sue'

In the defamation case filed by Nora Fatehi against Jacqueline Fernandez, the former recorded her statement at Delhi’s Patiala House Court recently where she claimed that she was made a ‘scapegoat’ in the multi crore money laundering case involving conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar. Jacqueline is also an accused in the case and Nora Fatehi and Chahatt Khanna are witnesses. Now, in a statement, Jacqueline's lawyer said, “We have not received any official communication from Honourable Courts so we cannot confirm any such developments. It is a matter of admitted fact that Jacqueline has never ever made any statement against anyone for that matter before any electronic , print or social media. Jacqueline has always maintained a dignified and graceful silence about the case as the matter is sub-judice and pending before Honourable Courts for adjudication. However, that does not mean that she can be dragged into certain unwarranted legal proceedings for no fault of hers. Whenever legal Arguments are advanced or written notes filed before Judicial Forums for the purpose of adjudication. Such arguments cannot be discussed like this before the public domain . That itself is an act of civil and criminal Contempt of the respective legal proceedings. The Judicial proceedings have certain sanctity which has to be respected. However, if Jacqueline is compelled into an unwarranted litigation or dragged into a fake litigation against her Will, She shall approach the Honourable Delhi High Court for her rightful legal remedy for protecting and safeguarding her Fundamental Right as Guaranteed by the Constitution of India. Separate Legal Action for contempt of Courts can be considered if the records of Court are leaked and used to initiate legal proceedings wherein certain people are not even party to that proceedings. My client reserves the right to sue for malicious prosecution in criminal courts against the people responsible for such illegal and malicious Act which kindly note."
