Nora was approached by Chandrashekhar’s wife Leena Maria Paul, who also was later arrested for her role in the scam. “She had approached Nora through a manager for a nail art function and later both came closer leading to Chandrashekhar gifting Nora a BMW car, expensive phones and other gifts. Nora has also cleared that she did not know Chandrashekhar was in jail or that the gifts are being bought from proceeds of crime. She said she also had not visited Chandrashekhar in jail,” the officer said.
