A Special CBI court on Monday reserved its order for June 3 on an anticipatory bail application filed by Congress MP Karti Chidambaram in the Enforcement Directorate's money laundering case registered on the basis of the Central Bureau of Investigation's FIR in the bribes for visa case.
Meanwhile, Special Judge M.K. Nagpal also directed that the interim protection from arrest granted to Karti last week will continue till the orders are passed.
The Enforcement Directorate has opposed the plea, saying that the apprehension of arrest is not reasonable as the agency has only just registered the ECIR (Enforcement Case Information Report) and that they have barely begun the investigation. They added that the agency is yet to receive crucial documents of the case from the CBI.
