P. Chidambaram in discussion with lawyers after court dismisses anticipatory bail plea in INX Media case

Congress leader P. Chidambaram on Tuesday discussed with senior advocate Kapil Sibal the situation after Delhi High Court dismissed his anticipatory bail plea in corruption and money laundering cases related to the INX Media scandal.

Sibal, along with a team of lawyers, is currently exploring the possibility of mentioning the appeal against the order in Supreme Court.

The discussions are on in the Supreme Court.

The development came minutes after the high court declined interim protection from arrest to Chidambaram.

After the high court denied him relief, senior advocate Dayan Krishnan, appearing for Chidambaram, sought a stay on the operation of the order for three days, which also the court denied.
