Delhi HC seeks CBI stand on Chidambaram’s plea over framing of charges in INX Media case

The Delhi High Court on Monday sought the stand of the CBI on pleas by former Union minister P Chidambaram and his son Karti Chidambaram seeking to defer arguments on framing of charges in the INX media case.

Justice Manoj Kumar Ohri issued notice to the investigating agency on the petitions and said “let response be filed”.

The senior counsel appearing for the two Congress leaders argued that the arguments on framing of charges ought not to commence before the trial court as the investigation was still pending.
