Chidambaram's arrest raised questions: Raja

CPI general secretary D Raja on Friday criticized the manner in which senior Congress leader P Chidambaram was arrested by CBI after being allegedly hunted down.

The arrest of Chidambaram, the former union finance minister and former union home minister, by the investigating agency on Wednesday has raised several questions and it is for CBI to give a convincing reply, he told newsmen here.

"The way Chidambaram was been hunted down, detained and arrested has come under severe criticism," Raja told reporters here at the airport.

He was, however, quick to add "The law will take its course. Let us wait and see how the judicial process is going to be."
