SC orders K Kavitha to get bail in the excise policy matter from the trial court.

The court issued a notice on her petition, challenging the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act under which she was arrested on March 15.

The Supreme Court has requested Bharat Rashtra Samithi MLC K Kavitha to seek bail in a money laundering case related to the Delhi excise policy.

Justices Sanjiv Khanna, MM Sundresh, and Bela M Trivedi requested Kavitha to approach the trial court, stating it follows protocol and cannot bypass it.

The organization sent a notice to the Enforcement Directorate regarding a petition challenging the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, under which she was arrested on March 15.

The bench has stated that the petition challenging provisions will be addressed with the pending matters, according to senior advocate Kapil Sibal, representing Kavitha.

Sibal stated that people are being arrested based on an approver’s statement during a hearing, but the court has not yet considered the merit of the case.

The case against K. Kavitha

Kavitha, the daughter of former Telangana chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao, is currently in the agency’s custody until March 23.

The ED accuses Kavitha of conspiring with Aam Aadmi Party leaders to secure favors in Delhi liquor policy by paying ₹100 crore to the party. Kavitha refutes these allegations and calls the ED’s actions against her ‘illegal’.

BRS leader and her brother KT Rama Rao criticized the BJP-led government after her arrest, stating that power abuse and institutional misuse to settle political scores has become increasingly common with the BJP government in the last decade.

The ED needs to respond to the Supreme Court on the excessive arrest rush, which is sub-judice and up for review on March 19th. The ED is undermining its own undertaking to the Supreme Court.

The ED questioned Kavitha three times last year and again this year, but she refused to depose, citing a Supreme Court directive allowing her protection from coercive action.

Kavitha was previously interrogated by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) regarding the case.
