New Delhi, March 01: Custody of former Finance Minister P. Chidambaram's son Karti has been granted to CBI by a court on Thursday in INX Media alleged bribery case. Custody has been granted for questioning till March 6.
CBI Judge Sunil Rana gave the order after three hours of heated arguments between Karti's lawyer and the CBI counsel, who pleaded for 14 days custody, saying he needed to be questioned thoroughly in "a serious finance corruption case" which is not a political witch hunt or vendetta.
The Judge disallowed Karti's plea for home-cooked food but directed that he could be allowed medicines and a medical examination would also be done.
