The Delhi HC on Wednesday dismissed the CBI’s challenge to a trial court order allowing inspection of documents by Congress’s P Chidambaram, his son Karti Chidambaram and other accused in the INX Media case.

CBI had sought to set aside a special judge’s March 5 order that directed the agency to allow inspection of documents kept in the ‘malkhana’ (room where case properties are stored) by the accused or their counsel.

The HC, however, saw no merit in the CBI’s challenge and dismissed the plea.
