The CBI has filed a case against former ICICI bank chief Chanda Kochhar's husband Deepak Kochhar and Videocon head Venugopal Dhoot in a case linked to alleged irregularities in loan. The investigating agency searched the Videocon headquarters in Mumbai and Aurangabad in Maharashtra on Thursday.

Chanda Kochhar quit as CEO and Managing Director of the ICICI Bank in October over the case, which involves a loan of Rs. 3,250 crore to the Videocon Group in 2012. The case exploded last year when a whistleblower alleged that Ms Kochhar's husband Deepak Kochhar and her family members benefited from the dealings.
