The Enforcement Directorate has alleged in its supplementary charge sheet filed against BRS leader K Kavitha that more than ₹1,100 crore was laundered in the alleged Delhi excise scam. The charges were made before Special Judge Kaveri Beweja, who extended Kavitha’s judicial custody till July 3 after she was produced in court. Three co-accused were granted bail.
The investigation identified a total of ₹1,100 crore as proceeds of crime, with Kavitha being involved in ₹292.8 crore. The charge sheet alleges that Kavitha conspired to pay kickbacks to leaders and generate proceeds of crime through various activities.
According to the prosecution complaint, Kavitha participated in the formation of IndoSpirits, a company involved in the case, to generate, acquire, and use proceeds of crime. The ED claimed that she tried to conceal her involvement by deleting digital evidence and influencing witnesses.
Kavitha, along with other accused, is facing charges related to corruption and money laundering in the Delhi excise policy for 2021-22. She was arrested in March and is in judicial custody. The case highlights the alleged scam and the elaborate schemes involved in the laundering of funds.
