Today CBI arrested BRS MLA K Kavitha in the Delhi liquor policy case. This comes after a Delhi Court had permitted the Central Probe Agency to interrogate the BRS MLA. The BRS leader is accused of allegedly paying Rs 100 crore to AAP leaders in return for liquor licenses in the Capital and is currently in ED custody over the matter.
NEW DELHI: A Delhi court, which dismissed an application moved by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, arrested in a money laundering case, has revealed that the AAP chief allegedly used legal consultations allowed by the court to issue certain administrative directions from jail to Minister Atishi through his lawyers. The court maintained that relevant rules are equally applicable to him and other inmates. Importantly, the Directorate Of Enforcement also said that legal interviews were being misused by Kejriwal for purposes other than consultation.
K Kavitha leader of BRS, is currently under the ED’s custody at Tihar Jail under the liquor policy case. Kavitha was arrested from her Banjara Hills Residence, based in Hyderabad on March 15.
Special Judge Kaveri Baweja had allowed the CBI to visit the jail to record Kavitha’s statement, following the submission of a written notice to the jail superintendent concerned a day before.
First the Delhi CM is arrested in the fake Delhi liquor case. Now, the LG has started sacking his entire staff including his private secretary. There is no doubt left that BJP’s sole aim is to finish AAP. Democracy is being dismantled in the national capital,” says AAP leader Jasmine Shah.
-Delhi Minister Atishi says, “Everybody in Delhi knows that Arvind Kejriwal has been arrested in a false case. What has he been arrested for? – because he gives free electricity, water, good education & Mohalla Clinics. The people of Delhi are angry with the arrest of CM Kejriwal…Everyone knows why Raj Kumar Anand resigned. A 23-hour raid was conducted at his residence in November…There was a lot of pressure on him from ED…”
