New Delhi: The Central Bureau of Investigation has (CBI) arrested Former ICICI Bank CEO Chanda Kochhar and her husband and businessman Deepak Kochhar, linked to a loan fraud case involving bank officials and the Videocon Group.

A senior CBI official told IANS that the arrests were made from Delhi whereas the fraud FIR was filed with its Mumbai branch in January 2019 against Kochhar, her husband and Venugopal Dhoot of Videocon Group.
