NEW DELHI: Former finance minister P Chidambaram seems to be in deeper trouble as the Supreme Court denied him anticipatory bail. The senior Congress leader sought protection from arrest within an hour of the Delhi HC denying him anticipatory bail in decade-old cases.
The cases were being investigated by the CBI and ED in relation to the alleged irregularities in FIPB clearance for the Rs 3,500-crore Aircel-Maxis deal and the Rs 305-crore FDI in INX Media. These happened when the leader was heading the finance ministry.
