P Chidambaram arrest: Will there be some relief for ex-FM?

Ex-finance minister and senior Congress leader P Chidambaram spent the night in a lockup of the CBI after he was taken into custody on Wednesday night following over 24 hours of high drama. Chidambaram's bail plea will be heard in CBI court today.

The Congress party is alleging that the controversy surrounding P Chidambaram has been created by the Central government to tarnish Congress's image and to suppress the critics of the ruling party.
