New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Tuesday evening turned down former Union minister and senior Congress leader P Chidambaram’s plea for an urgent hearing on his anticipatory bail petition after his anticipatory bail plea linked with money laundering cases related to the INX Media scam was dismissed by the Delhi High Court earlier during the day.

After the apex Court rejected Chidambaram’s plea for urgent hearing into the anticipatory bail matter, a team of CBI and Enforcement Directorate sleuths reached his house at Jorbagh in the union Capital amidst talks of the possibility of his arrest.

Chidambaram has gone missing and his cellphone was switched off.
