Aircel-Maxis case: Delhi HC stays trial court proceedings against Chidambaram

Deccan Chronicle  

New Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Wednesday stayed the trial court proceedings against senior Congress leader P Chidambaram in the Aircel-Maxis case lodged by the Enforcement Directorate.The high court also issued notice to the Enforcement Directorate and sought its response on Chidambaram's petition challenging the trial court's order taking cognisance of the chargesheet filed by the agency against him and his son Karti in the money laundering case. Senior advocate N Hariharan and lawyers Arshdeep Singh Khurana and Akshat Gupta, representing Chidambaram, contended that the special judge took cognisance of the chargesheet for the alleged offence of money laundering in the absence of any sanction for prosecution of the former Union minister who was a public servant when the offence was allegedly committed. The trial court on November 27, 2021, took cognisance of the chargesheets filed by the CBI and the ED against Chidambaram and Karti in the Aircel-Maxis case and summoned them on a later date. Chidambaram's counsel said obtaining sanction for prosecution under Section 197 of the Code of Criminal Procedure is mandatory and the ED has not obtained it till date to prosecute the Congress leader.
