The Delhi High Court has denied P Chidambaram, the former Finance Minister, anticipatory bail in the INX Media case. The court said its "Preposterous to say prosecution of Mr Chidambaram is baseless, politically motivated and an act of vendetta." The court also said facts of the case reveal prima facie that the petitioner is the king pin in the case. This on a day when Ratul Puri, the nephew of the Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister was arrested in a corruption case and sent to the custody of the Enforcement Directorate for six days.
