BRS leader K Kavitha, held in Tihar Jail, rushed to Delhi's DDU hospital
PTC News Desk: On Tuesday night, BRS leader K Kavitha, who is being held at Tihar jail, was brought to the DDU Hospital in Delhi. Due to the Delhi excise policy case, she is incarcerated.
March 15th, this year, saw the arrest of K Kavitha. Arvind Kejriwal, the chief minister of Delhi, was detained by the Enforcement Directorate six days later as part of a money laundering investigation related to the Delhi excise policy case.
The reason she was brought to the hospital is still unknown. Initial arrests made by the Enforcement Directorate included K Kavitha. The CBI detained her the following month. In both instances, K Kavitha, the daughter of former Telangana chief minister K Chandrashekar Rao, is being held by the court.
K Kavitha is charged with belonging to a gang that allegedly paid Rs 100 crore in bribes to the AAP in exchange for creating a pro-liquor policy. In the same case, Manish Sisodia and Kejriwal are incarcerated in Tihar Jail.
The CBI claimed there was enough evidence to prosecute Kavitha in the corruption case when they submitted a supplemental charge sheet against her in June.

She had earlier been questioned in the jail by the CBI. Concerning the WhatsApp conversations found on co-accused Buchi Babu's phone, she inquired. She was also questioned on an alleged payment to the party of ?100 crore.
K Kavitha went to a Delhi court earlier this month to request "default" release in the corruption case.
K Kavitha's attorney argued in her bail request that the chargesheet against her was lacking certain details. According to the appeal, she had been in custody for longer than the 60 days that the law required the CBI to produce a comprehensive chargesheet following her arrest.
It is abundantly evident that the third supplemental chargesheet was submitted only to circumvent, thwart, and hinder the applicant's release on default bail, as well as to violate Section 309(2) of the Cr.P.C. in a circuitous manner. The plea stated that the law could not support such haphazard and insufficient investigations intended to violate the applicant's entitlement to be released on default bail.
The case was then scheduled for another hearing by the court for July 22.
