Delhi High Court Rejects CBI Plea Against Bail to Ex-NSE Chief in Phone Tapping Case
The Delhi High Court dismissed the Central Bureau of Investigation's plea challenging bail granted to former National Stock Exchange (NSE) CEO Chitra Ramkrishna in an alleged illegal phone-tapping case. The case involves accusations that senior NSE officials, including Ramkrishna, conspired with iSec Services Pvt Ltd to intercept employees' phone calls between 2009 and 2017. The bail, granted by a trial court in December 2022, remains valid pending a detailed court order. Ramkrishna served as NSE's MD and CEO until December 2016.
