INX media case: CBI arrests former Union minister P Chidambaram from his residence

Former finance minister P Chidambaram who got arrested by CBI from his Jor Bagh residence in Delhi on Wednesday night will be presented in court on Thursday.  The Congress leader has been arrested after his name appeared in the INX media scam. As per ABP report, Chidambaram has been taken to CBI headquarters for further inquiry.

Later Wednesday evening a team of about 30 CBI officials reached Chidambaram's residence. The officials knocked the door for a few minutes and after getting no response they climbed up the wall of the residence and entered the former finance minister's premises. 

Chidambaram made a dramatic appearance at Congress headquarters earlier this evening, after being untraceable for 30 hours. At the press meet, he made a statement that if given an option to choose between life and liberty, he will choose liberty.
