BRS leader K Kavitha, who is lodged in Tihar jail, was taken to Delhi’s DDU Hospital on Tuesday evening. She is in jail in connection with the Delhi excise policy case. K Kavitha was arrested on March 15 this year. Six days later, the Enforcement Directorate arrested Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal in a money laundering probe linked to the Delhi excise policy case. It isn’t clear yet why she was taken to the hospital.
K Kavitha was first arrested by the Enforcement Directorate. The next month, the CBI arrested her. K Kavitha, the daughter of former Telangana chief minister K Chandrashekar Rao, is under judicial custody in both cases.K Kavitha is accused of being part of a group that allegedly gave AAP kickbacks amounting to ?100 crore for formulating a favourable liquor policy.
Manish Sisodia and Kejriwal are also in the Tihar Jail in the same case. In June, the CBI filed a supplementary charge sheet against Kavitha, claiming there was sufficient evidence to prosecute her in the corruption case.
