Court extends Kavitha's judicial custody in liquor scam case

BRS leader K Kavitha being produced at the Rouse Avenue court in the Delhi excise policy-related money laundering case, Tuesday, in New Delhi.

The judicial custody of BRS leader K Kavitha was today extended by two weeks by a court in a money laundering case related to the Delhi excise policy scam.

Kaveri Baweja, the Special judge for ED and CBI cases extended Kavitha's custody till April 23 after she was produced before the court on expiry of her judicial remand granted earlier.

Yesterday, the judge denied interim bail to the BRS leader, citing 'prima facie' that she not only destroyed evidence but was also instrumental in influencing witnesses and there is "every likelihood" of her continuing to do so in case the relief is granted.

The agency has alleged that Kavitha, an MLC, and daughter of ex-Telangana chief minister K Chandrashekar Rao, is a key member of the "South Group", which has been accused of paying the ruling AAP in Delhi kickbacks of Rs 100 crore in return for a big share of liquor licences in the national capital.

The 46-year-old political leader was arrested from her Banjara Hills residence in Hyderabad on March 15.
