Karti Chidambaram tweeted, ‘I have forgotten even counting, how many times has this happened? There has to be a record for this. According to sources, CBI has raided 7 places including the house of Karti and P. Chidambaram. Sources say that the CBI has registered a new case in a case of receiving money from abroad. Accordingly, this raid has been done. CBI sources said Karti Chidambaram had received the money between 2010 and 2014. Earlier, the CBI had registered a case for preliminary investigation.
