They said the alert notice against the Congress leader, whose anticipatory bail was cancelled on Tuesday, had been sent to all land, air and seaports and law-enforcement agencies at these facilities.
It says the ED should be alerted in case the person is found on their premises. It also asks them to not allow the Congress leader to cross the Indian border without the permission of the ED.
The officials said this is a preventive measure exercised by the agency as Chidambaram’s whereabouts are not known at present and he is required by them to take the probe forward in the INX Media case, being investigated under the the Prevention of Money Laundering Act. PTI
