A special court had ordered Karti Chidambaram to join the CBI investigation within 16 hours of his arrival from the UK and Europe where he had gone with permission from it and the Supreme Court.
Congress MP Karti Chidambaram appeared before the Central Bureau of Investigation, or CBI, today to join the investigation into an alleged Chinese visa scam case. Mr Chidambaram is accused of taking bribe to help grant visas to 263 Chinese nationals in 2011 when his father P Chidambaram was the home minister.
"Every case that has been filed against me is a bogus case. One is bogus... another is more bogus. This one is most bogus," said Mr Chidambaram outside the CBI headquarters in Delhi.
"I have not facilitated a single Chinese national in getting a visa," he added.
Earlier on May 17, the CBI had arrested Karti Chidambaram's close associate S Bhaskarraman in the case.
