New Delhi, Aug 23 (IBNS): Following the directive of the Supreme Court, former Union finance minister P Chidambaram's son Karti Chidambaram arrived at the office of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in an alleged corruption case, media report said.

However, the top court will later decide whether the look out notice to be quashed or not.
The lookout notice was issued, according to media reports, to prevent Karti Chidmabaram and his associates from leaving the country following the filing of an FIR against them pertaining to Karti and INX Media being allegedly involved in the Foreign Investment Promotion Board (FIPB) clearance given to the media house for foreign direct investment (FDI) in 2007.
