NSE illegal phone tapping: Delhi court sends former NSE chief Chitra Ramakrishnan to four-day custodial interrogation

Delhi court on Thursday sent former NSE MD Chitra Ramakrishnan to a four-day custodial interrogation in an alleged illegal phone tapping and snooping case.

Earlier today, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) had registered a fresh money laundering case in the said matter against former NSE chiefs Chitra Ramkrishna and Ravi Narain.

ED’s ECIR is based on CBI’s FIR in the matter. Along with Ramkrishna and Narain, Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is also probing iSec Services and former Mumbai police commissioner Sanjay Pandey who allegedly floated the firm in the said matter.


The CBI has been examining whether illegal phone taps of National Stock Exchange (NSE) employees involved acts of omission or commission on the part of the bourse, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) and audit firm EY India, said people with knowledge of the matter.
