On Thursday, the bail hearing of Bharat Rashtra Samithi leader K Kavitha was postponed. The Rouse Avenue Court in Delhi has rescheduled the verdict till 6 May. This marks a significant development in the ongoing legal proceedings.
This postponement means that Kavitha’s judicial custody in connection with charges related to a money laundering case linked to an alleged excise policy scam will continue.
The case revolves around investigations conducted by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), with parallel inquiries conducted by the Enforcement Directorate (ED).
The anticipation surrounding the upcoming decision on bail applications in both the CBI and ED cases underscores the gravity of the legal battle.
The CBI launched its probe following recommendations from a report submitted by the Delhi Chief Secretary in July. The report flagged purported violations of various statutes. It included the GNCTD Act 1991, Transaction of Business Rules (ToBR)-1993, Delhi Excise Act-2009, and Delhi Excise Rules-2010.
Both investigative agencies have leveled accusations of irregularities in the alteration of the excise policy.
Allegations encompass the bestowal of undue favors to license holders, the waiver or reduction of license fees, and the extension of the L-1 license without proper approval from competent authorities.
K Kavitha is the daughter of former Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao. Earlier on 15 March, the ED apprehended K Kavitha from her residence in Banjara Hills, Hyderabad. Following this, on 11 April, the CBI arrested her from Tihar jail.
