Former Finance Minister P Chidambaram has been sent to Tihar jail till September 19 in relation to the INX Media case after a Delhi Court declined to accept his bail plea.
P Chidambaram’s team tried every possible means to keep him out of Tihar jail and even offered his arrest by the Enforcement Directorate which could take him into custody to question him.
Earlier, the Supreme Court had rejected his request for an anticipatory bail in the INX Media case being investigated by the ED.
