BREAKINGNEWS: Supreme Court refuses to hear Chidambaram's plea

New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Monday declined to hear former Union Finance Minister P Chidambaram's plea challenging the Delhi High Court's denial of an interim arrest, media reports said.

Chidambaram's five-day CBI custody in connection with the INX Media case also ended on Monday.

Chidambaram was arrested after the Supreme Court refused to hear on Wednesday the plea against the Delhi High Court's denial of an interim protection to the former Union Minister on an urgent basis.

In an unprecedented development, a team of CBI reached the Jor Bagh residence of the senior politician, thumped at the gate and then scaled the wall of his house to enter inside the residence right after he left the Congress headquarters on Wednesday evening following a press conference.

After taking the senior politician into custody, the CBI team drove to the headquarters along with him. Chidambaram spent the entire Wednesday night at the CBI headquarters.
