 Delhi’s Rouse Avenue court on Friday sent Bharat Rasthra Samithi (BRS) leader Kalvakuntla Kavitha to Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) custody until April 15 in connection with the alleged Delhi excise policy scam.

Special Judge Kaveri Baweja issued the order after considering arguments presented by both the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and Kavitha’s legal representative.

Kavitha, aged 46, was apprehended by the CBI at Tihar jail, where she was being held following her arrest by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in a money laundering case linked to the alleged scam, on Thursday.

The CBI apprehended Kavitha under Section 120-B (criminal conspiracy) along with Section 477-A (falsification of accounts) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and Section 7 (offense relating to public servant being bribed) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, as per officials.
