Delhi’s Rouse Avenue Court on Monday denied interim bail to BRS leader Kalvakuntla Kavitha in money laundering case linked to the Delhi excise policy.
Special Judge Kaveri Baweja dismissed the plea, stating that the stage was not appropriate to grant her interim bail.
Kavitha had moved the court for interim bail, citing her 16-year-old son’s upcoming exams and his requirement for his mother’s “moral and emotional support.”
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) had objected to the submission, asserting that Kavitha had tampered with evidence and exerted influence on witnesses in the case.
The probe agency had accused the BRS leader of being a pivotal figure in the “South Group,” which stands accused of providing kickbacks amounting to Rs 100 crore to the ruling AAP in Delhi in exchange for a substantial portion of liquor licenses in the national capital.
On March 15, Kalvakuntla Kavitha was apprehended from her Banjara Hills residence amidst demonstrations by BRS supporters. Subsequently, she was remanded to seven-day ED custody the following day. Her custodial questioning was subsequently prolonged by three days. She was transferred to 14-day judicial custody on April 2, 2024.
