New Delhi: The son of senior Congress leader P. Chidambaram, Karti Chidambara thanked the Congress party for its support to his father and said the 'drama and spectacle' was being enacted by the probe agencies for the 'voyeuristic pleasure of some'.
As officials of Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and Enforcement Directorate (ED) scaled the boundary wall of the Jor Bagh residence of his father to arrest him, Karti Chidambaram tweeted, "The drama and spectacle being enacted by the agencies is to simply sensationalise and satisfy the voyeuristic pleasure of some."
"I am thankful to the @INCIndia Shri @RahulGandhi, @priyankagandhi, for their support. And ever grateful to @KapilSibal, @DrAMSinghvi, @salman7khurshid, for being there with us throughout."
