  The candidate chiral doublet bands recently observed in $^{126}$Cs have been
extended to higher spins, several new linking transitions between the two
partner members of the chiral doublet bands are observed, and
$\gamma$$-$intensities related to the chiral doublet bands are presented by
analyzing the $\gamma$$-$$\gamma$ coincidence data collected earlier at the
NORDBALL through the $^{116}$Cd$($$^{14}$N, 4n$)$$^{126}$Cs reaction at a beam
energy of 65 MeV. The intraband $B(M1)/B(E2)$ and interband
$B(M1)_{in}/B(M1)_{out}$ ratios and the energy staggering parameter, S(I), have
been deduced for these doublet bands. The results are found to be consistent
with the chiral interpretation for the two structures. Furthermore, the
observation of chiral doublet bands in $^{126}$Cs together with those in
$^{124}$Cs, $^{128}$Cs, $^{130}$Cs and $^{132}$Cs also indicates that the
chiral conditions do not change rapidly with decreasing neutron number in these
odd-odd Cesium isotopes.
