A Delhi court on Thursday granted bail to Congress leader Karti Chidambaram in a money laundering case related to the alleged China visa scam.
The Special Judge for ED and CBI, Kaveri Baweja, awarded the compensation to the suspect after he appeared before the court on a summons issued against him.
The court had issued a summons against the accused while taking cognizance of a chargesheet filed by the ED in the case.
The judge granted relief on a personal bond of Rs one lakh and one surety of the same amount.
The ED has registered the money laundering case against Karti Chidambaram in connection with the alleged scam involving issuance of visas to 263 Chinese nationals in 2011, when his father P. Chidambaram was the Union Home Minister.
