The Delhi High Court has granted bail to former National Stock Exchange (NSE) CEO Chitra Ramkrishna in a money laundering case related to alleged illegal phone tapping and snooping of NSE employees. The Enforcement Directorate had opposed her bail plea, claiming she was the "mastermind" behind the conspiracy. The case, according to the ED, pertains to the period from 2009 to 2017 when Ramkrishna, along with former NSE CEO Ravi Narain and others, conspired to engage in illegal interception of phone calls of NSE employees. Ramkrishna served as Joint MD of NSE from 2009 to 2013 and as CEO from 2013 to 2016.
