Former Union minister P Chidambaram's son Karti will appear before Central Bureau of Investigation today.

The Supreme Court on August 18 directed Karti to appear before the CBI on August 23 for an interrogation in connection with INX media Foreign Investment Promotion Board clearance case.

Earlier, Karti submitted before the apex court bench that he is willing to appear before the CBI in the case.

"I am not afraid of appearing, but I need protection," Karti told the apex court.

The Madras high court had on August 10 stayed the 'look out circulars' issued against Karti and four others by the Centre over a corruption case filed by the CBI, holding that they were prima facie "unwarranted".
