The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has arrested K Kavitha, a prominent leader of the Bharatiya Rashtriya Suraksha (BRS) party, in connection with the Delhi Liquor Excise Policy Scam. Kavitha stands accused of orchestrating a scheme to pay kickbacks to the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in exchange for liquor licenses.
The arrest follows extensive investigations into allegations of corruption within the Delhi government's excise department. According to sources familiar with the case, Kavitha's role in facilitating illicit deals for obtaining liquor licenses came under scrutiny during the probe.
Kavitha was apprehended and taken into custody by the CBI, where she was subjected to interrogation regarding her involvement in the scam. Subsequent inquiries revealed a potential nexus between Kavitha and high-ranking officials within the AAP administration, prompting further scrutiny into the matter.
Additionally, Kavitha faces charges related to money laundering, stemming from her alleged participation in the illicit activities associated with the excise policy scam. The investigation into financial irregularities and illegal transactions linked to Kavitha's activities remains ongoing.
As of now, K Kavitha remains in custody pending further legal proceedings. The court has scheduled hearings for April 26, where Kavitha is expected to face formal charges related to the liquor excise policy scam and money laundering allegations.
The arrest of K Kavitha marks a significant development in the ongoing efforts to combat corruption and malfeasance within the government's regulatory framework. It underscores the authorities' commitment to upholding the rule of law and holding accountable those implicated in acts of corruption and financial misconduct.
