Supreme Court to hear CBI’s plea against Delhi HC findings on Chidambaram, Tuesday

The CBI on challenged Monday in the Supreme Court the findings of the Delhi High Court that former Union Finance Minister P Chidambaram, arrested in the INX Media corruption case, was not a flight risk and could not tamper with evidence.

The top court agreed to hear the CBI’s plea Tuesday, along with the appeal filed by Chidambaram, challenging the High Court’s September 30 verdict denying him bail in the case. Though the high court had denied bail to the senior Congress leader, it had observed that he was not a flight risk and could not tamper with evidence.

The matter was mentioned before a bench headed by Justice R Banumathi and advocate Rajat Nair, appearing for the CBI, urged the bench for an urgent hearing on the plea.

P Chidambaram’s appeal challenging the Delhi High Court order dismissing his bail plea is already listed Tuesday for hearing before a bench of Justice Banumathi.

The high court had decided 74-year-old Chidambaram’s bail petition on three aspects – flight risk, tampering with evidence and influencing of witnesses.

The CBI has challenged the high court’s findings on the aspects of flight risk and tampering with evidence.

Challenging the high court order denying him bail, Chidambaram had earlier approached the apex court, which issued a notice to the CBI, asking the agency to respond to the plea.
