BY A STAFF REPORTER: The Rouse Avenue Court reserved an order on CBI's plea seeking a five-day extension of K Kavitha's judicial remand on April 12, Friday.
During the hearing, the CBI accused K Kavitha as a key conspirator in the Delhi liquor policy scam and also alleged that she was concealing facts which are exclusively in her knowledge. They further alleged that K Kavitha collected kickbacks worth Rs. 100 crores. However, K Kavitha termed the CBI custody illegal and questioned the timing of her arrest. Kavitha also claimed that she didn't get a chance for legal consultation before CBI custody and was arrested without explicit permission from the court.
The CBI took K Kavitha's custody under sections of criminal conspiracy and falsification of accounts of the Indian Penal Code and certain sections of the Prevention of Corruption Act. Moreover, the Rouse Avenue Court on Monday came heavily upon K Kavitha for evidently influencing witnesses and destroying evidence. Her interim bail plea on the grounds of her son's school examination was also rejected by the Rouse Avenue Court.
K Kavitha has been lodged in the Tihar Jail. Delhi's Rouse Avenue Court sent BRS MLC K Kavitha to judicial custody till April 9 in the Delhi Liquor Policy Case on March 26, Tuesday. The Enforcement Directorate arrested her on March 15 following a raid at her residence in Hyderabad.
