The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has taken a significant step forward in the Delhi Excise policy case by filing a charge sheet against BRS leader K Kavitha. The Rouse Avenue court is scheduled to consider the charge sheet on July 6, marking a pivotal moment in the ongoing legal proceedings.
This development marks the third supplementary charge sheet filed by the CBI in connection with the Delhi Excise policy case. Special judge Kaveri Baweja has set the stage for further deliberation on July 6, signalling the intensification of legal scrutiny in this matter.
Meanwhile, K Kavitha's judicial custody has been extended until June 21 in the CBI case. She remains in judicial custody in both the CBI and the Enforcement Directorate (ED) cases. Kavitha's legal troubles began with her arrest by the ED in March, followed by subsequent arrest by the CBI in April.
In addition to the CBI's charge sheet, the Enforcement Directorate has also taken action, filing a charge sheet against Kavitha in the Delhi Excise policy money laundering case.
The ED's recent supplementary charge sheet, filed on June 3, highlighted the identification of proceeds of crime (PoC) amounting to Rs 1100 crore, with Rs 292.8 crore being addressed in the prosecution complaint.
The chargesheet alleges Kavitha's involvement in PoC amounting to Rs 292.8 crore, including kickbacks to AAP leaders and profits from Indospirits. It asserts that Kavitha conspired with South Group members and AAP leaders to pay kickbacks and receive undue benefits.
The formation of Indo Spirits was allegedly utilised to generate, acquire, and utilise PoC of Rs 192.8 crore, which was portrayed as legitimate profit from a genuine business.
Furthermore, Kavitha is accused of receiving PoC of Rs 5.5 crore from Indo Spirits in the name of her associate Abhishek Boinpally. The chargesheet alleges her involvement in the generation and transfer of PoC to government functionaries through intermediaries, highlighting the intricate web of alleged corruption and conspiracy surrounding the case.
