The Delhi High Court has refused to grant bail to BRS leader K Kavitha in corruption and money laundering cases connected to the excise policy scam.
Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma, who reserved the decision on May 28, dismissed Kavitha's bail petitions, emphasizing the influence she could wield on witnesses.
The case revolves around allegations of financial misconduct in the formulation and implementation of Delhi's 2021-22 excise policy, which was subsequently scrapped.
Despite the defense highlighting her unique position as the only woman among the 50 accused, the court remained unyielding. Kavitha, daughter of ex-Telangana CM K Chandrashekar Rao, claims the charges are part of a political conspiracy.
