Lookout notice served to Karti Chidambaram; approaches Madras High Court

Mangalore Today News Network

Chennai, Aug 12, 2017: More trouble seems to be brewing for Congress leader Karti Chidambaram. A lookout notice has been issued against the former Finance Minister P Chidambaram ’s son in the FEMA rules violation case.

About ten days ago, Karti Chidambaram approached the Madras HC appealing against lookout notice issued by CBI.

The petition came up for hearing today, with the high court asking for clarification on the matter from the Home Ministry. The matter has been adjourned to Monday.

CBI had allegedly issued summons against Chidambaram to appear before the agency for further interrogation related to the INX Media deal, when it was owned by Indrani and Peter Mukherjee.

He, however, refused to answer the summons and applied to Madras HC.

So far, Karthi Chidambaram has neither denied nor confirmed about the lookout notice against him.

Raids were conducted at Kartik’s residence a few days ago.

Chidambaram told The Economic Times that he is currently in the country and not going anywhere. He further assured that he is ready to cooperate the investigation.
