Moreover, Fernandez insisted in the plea that the fixed deposits that have been submitted as evidence were created by her own money long before she met the conman and are not linked to gifts from Chandrashekhar whatsoever.

“Taking the entire prosecution case to be true for the sake of arguments, even then, no case is made out against her under the scheme of PMLA or any other law in force.
