Senior Congress leader and Congress spokesman Abhishek Manu Singhvi was caught in a sex scandal after the emergence of a sensational CD that was filmed by a former driver of Singhvi. The CD allegedly showed Abhishek Manu Singhvi in a compromising position with a female advocate inside the hallowed lawyers chambers of Supreme Court!  

Mukesh Kumar Lal, the driver of Singhvi for several years, was accused of filming the CD secretly and blackmailing Singhvi to make the CD public through media channels.

Singhvi approached the Delhi High Court for banning the CD alleging that the content of the CD was morphed. Acting on Singhvi's plea, Delhi High Court banned the publication on broadcasting of the CD but the CD was uploaded on YouTube and Singhvi was deeply embarrassed.

The controversy made the Congress party red-faced and the party dropped Singhvi from its media panel. The Congress party, however, has brought him back on the media panel on Nov 2, 2012.
