Delhi's Rouse Avenue court on Monday has denied the interim bail plea of BRS MLC K Kavitha in connection with the Delhi excise policy case. Kavitha, currently in judicial custody following the Enforcement Directorate's remand, had applied for interim bail citing her minor son's upcoming school examinations.
Kavitha remains in judicial custody, with her regular bail hearing scheduled for April 20. She is purportedly a prominent figure within the 'South Group,' implicated in allegedly providing kickbacks worth Rs 100 crore to the ruling AAP in Delhi in exchange for a substantial portion of liquor licenses in the national capital. Kavitha was placed in 14-day judicial custody last Tuesday.
Kavitha, 46, was arrested from her Banjara Hills residence on March 15 amid protests by BRS supporters.
