The Enforcement Directorate (ED) did not mention the name of former chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao in the Delhi liquor scam. There were speculations on news channels and social media that he could be probed next. However, the BRS refuted these claims, stating that the counter filed by the ED did not mention KCR. The reference to “father” was regarding Magunta Raghav, who stated that his father Srinivasulu Reddy knows about the policy.
The ED opposed Kavitha’s bail petition, citing crucial confession statements from approvers Magunta Raghava, Magunta Srinivasulu Reddy, and Gopi Maran. In March 2021, Srinivasulu Reddy met Kejriwal and revealed that Kavitha was ready to invest Rs 100 crore in the Delhi liquor policy. After meeting Kavitha, Srinivasulu Reddy met Buchibabu, who agreed to invest Rs 50 crore. The ED argued that Kavitha was a key conspirator in the scam and a highly influential person.
The ED claimed that Kavitha used eleven phones and damaged four phones, arguing against granting bail based on her gender. The Delhi High Court reserved orders on Kavitha’s bail petition for Thursday, after hearing arguments from the investigating agencies ED and CBI.
