Feel like I am part of a 007 movie: Karti Chidambaram’s swipe at CBI
The submissions were made by the CBI which probed Karti in the INX media case.
I feel like I am part of a 007 movie said Karti Chidambaram, son of former union minister P Chidambaram. He was taking a swipe at the Central Bureau of Investigation which told the Supreme Court that he had foreign accounts.
Secret/undisclosed accounts/properties. Overseas trips to conceal them etc etc, makes me feel like I am part of a 007 movie, Karti said on Twitter.
The CBI on Friday told the SC that Karti Chidambaram went abroad to close his foreign accounts.
The CBI while arguing that the look out circular against Karti should remain in force said that he went abroad and closed his accounts. Karti Chidambaram has closed several foreign accounts and transferred money deposited in them when he was abroad, the CBI also said.
This is in clear contradiction to what Karti, had tol d the agency-that he had just one account. The court is hearing a plea challenging the lookout circular issued by the Central Bureau of Investigation which barred Karti, son of former union minister P Chidambaram from traveling abroad.
The Central Bureau of Investigation has alleged that Karti Chidambaram took service charges for getting FIPB clearance when his father P Chidambaram was the union finance minister.
The CBI while defending the circular said that it has ample evidence to show the properties and accounts that Karti Chidambaram holds abroad. It also accused him of charging service while getting FIPB clearance when his father Chidambaram was the finance minister of India.
The submissions were made by the CBI which probed Karti in the INX media case. Karti Chidambaram arguing through his counsel said that the CBI has claimed that he had properties all across the world. They also said I have bank accounts abroad. However during the questioning the CBI did not ask me one question about it, he also submitted.
The CBI responded by saying, " we have things to show- the jugglery of accounts and properties abroad.
