P Chidambaram Statement: "Between Life And Liberty, I Pick Liberty" | Read
Former Union minister P Chidambaram arrived at the party office of the Congress this evening after day-long accusations of evading arrest. "All we wanted is a hearing. No one is running away," said the senior Congress leader, who hadn't been seen since the High Court denied him protection from arrest on Tuesday. Since the high court judgment, the CBI had visited his residence in Delhi twice and two lookout circulars have been issued against him by the Enforcement Directorate and the CBI. The Supreme Court has refused an urgent hearing on his request for anticipatory bail. The court will hear the petition on Friday.
