HC to hear on Monday CBI’s plea in INX Media corruption case involving Chidambaram, others

NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court is scheduled to hear on Monday the CBI’s plea in the INX Media corruption case involving Congress leader P Chidambaram and his son Karti.

The CBI has challenged a trial court’s order directing the agency to allow inspection of documents kept in the ‘malkhana’ (room where case properties are kept) by the accused and their counsel.

The plea is listed for hearing before Justice Mukta Gupta.

The high court had on May 18 stayed trial proceedings in the case involving Chidambaram and his son Karti.

It had also issued notice and sought responses of Chidambaram and others on the CBI’s plea.
