Chidambaram moves SC for bail

04/10/2019, LEGAL CORRESPONDENT,NEW DELHI

Former Union Finance Minister P. Chidambaram on Thursday moved the Supreme Court challenging the Delhi High Court’s rejection of his plea for regular bail in the INX Media case on September 30.

The appeal in the Supreme Court was filed on a day the trial court extended his judicial custody till October 17 in the case. The lower court, however, allowed Mr. Chidambaram to have home-cooked food.

In his petition before the Supreme Court, Mr. Chidambaram said he had suffered over 40 days of incarceration, including the maximum permissible period of 15 days of CBI remand.

The plea was listed before a Bench of Justices R. Banumathi and Hrishikesh Roy on October 4.
