Karti Chidambaram<\/a> has denied all allegations.\u00a0\u00a0Kari said a statement posted on his Twitter handle on Tuesday, “If this is not harassment, not a witch hunt, then what is.” “I have full faith in the judiciary of our great country and trust the institution to stand by the truth. It does not intimidate me that the central government is once again using its agencies to accuse me of a malicious and completely fabricated charge,” he said.<\/p>\nHe also said, “Previously, the agencies have gone after me based on the statement of an undertrial murder suspect. Now, they are basing their bogus charges on the alleged actions of a deceased person, whom I have never met. I intend to continue to fight every one of their motivated attempts to target my father through me,” the Congress MP said.<\/p>\n
He said he was “certain that he never facilitated even a single Chinese national in their visa process, let alone 250.” According to the CBI, the work for setting up the power project was being executed by a Chinese company and was running behind schedule. A TSPL executive had sought re-issuance of project visas for 263 Chinese workers for which Rs 50 lakh allegedly exchanged hands, according to the CBI FIR.<\/p>\n
Of note, Indrani Mukherjea<\/a> testified against Karti’s father, Mr. P. Chidambaram and he was named in a charge sheet filed where Indrani (a criminal in jail for the murder of her daughter) was an \u201capprover\u201d in the case.\u00a0 Mr. P Chidambaram was freed after 106 days in jail for an INX Media money laundering case, which had no substantial evidence against him.\u00a0 Indrani Mukerjea is presently out on bail.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t
