New Delhi: Karti Chidambaram, son of senior Congress leader P Chidambaram on Thursday said that he is 'expecting to have his father back home very soon'.
"I've gone through the same process last year. We'll go through this process again and I hope to have my father back home very soon. I know what has to be done through the legal process. This is how it works out unfortunately after police custody for investigation, judicial custody follows," Karti Chidambaram said.
"I don't see any merit in judicial custody. Particularly for events which apparently happened 11 years ago and they are nowhere even close to filing a chargesheet. I'm sure people will contrast the various judicial pronounces that have come out today," he said.
Karti also said that both Aircel-Maxis and INX cases are non-cases and they will never see the light of day.
"I don't think proper chargesheets will ever be framed. But, for political reasons we have to go through this process," commented the son of senior Congress leader P Chidambaram.
