Delhi’s Rouse Avenue Court on Monday extended the judicial custody of Bharat Rashtra Samiti (BRS) leader Kalvakuntla Kavitha in the liquor policy case till July 3.
Kavitha appeared in Delhi Rouse Avenue Court as her judicial custody period in the money laundering case related to the alleged liquor policy scam expired.
Enforcement Directorate (ED) arrested Kavitha on March 15 from her residence in Banjara Hills, Telangana.
Kavitha, an MLC and daughter of former Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao, stands accused of being a pivotal member of the “South Group,” which purportedly paid the ruling AAP in Delhi kickbacks of Rs 100 crore in exchange for a significant portion of liquor licenses in the national capital. Apart from facing charges from the ED, she is also embroiled in a case registered by the Central Bureau of Investigation concerning the alleged scam. While serving remand in the ED’s case, CBI arrested her from Tihar prison on April 11.
In addition to Kavitha, Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Arvind Kejriwal, along with former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, have also been apprehended in connection with the case. Kejriwal, who was granted interim bail for Lok Sabha polls, returned to Tihar on Sunday.
