According to report CBI sources said former ICICI Bank CEO and MD Chanda Kochhar, her husband Deepak Kochhar and industrialist V.N. Dhoot in connection with the Rs 3,250 crore loan case involving the Videocon Group and ICICI Bank. Meanwhile the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) sources said the agency would initiate the summons as it had completed the scrutiny of documents it had seized during the January 24 raids carried out at four locations in Maharashtra.
Source said "Soon we will start issuing summons to all concerned persons in the case". Furthermore he indicated that the agency will first call Deepak Kochhar and Dhoot for questioning as they were the beneficiaries of the loans disbursed by ICICI. Reportedly the agency had issued a lookout circular against Chanda Kochhar and the "issuance of a LOC is a routine process" which was done in cases of economic offences so that a tab was kept on their movement.
Moreover the CBI had earlier issued LOC against Deepak Kochhar and Dhoot after it registered a preliminary inquiry in March last year to keep a tab on their travel plans at the immigration desks at the international airports. Apparently the official also said that they were collecting the list of assets owned by the Kochhars and Dhoot in India and abroad.
