New Delhi: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) will be questioning Telangana CM K Chandrashekar Rao’s daughter K Kavitha on March 10 in connection with Delhi liquor policy money laundering case.
After sending Hyderabad-based businessman Arun Ramchandra Pillai to ED custody till March 13 and liquor baron Amandeep Dhall to judicial custody till March 21, Delhi High Court issued summons to Kavitha to appear before ED for questioning.
Previously she was questioned by the CBI in Hyderabad for over seven hours on December 12 in connection with the case.
ED has alleged that Kavitha handled the ‘South Cartel’ money laundering ‘system’.
The policy was withdrawn last year by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government after a CBI probe was ordered by Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena, a representative of the BJP-led government at the centre.
The ED and the CBI have both alleged that several irregularities were committed while modifying the liquor policy with kickbacks from the “South Cartel” lobby.
The group allegedly comprised Kavitha of Telangana’s ruling Bharat Rashtra Samithi, Magunta Srinivasalu Reddy, an MP from Andhra Pradesh’s ruling YSR Congress, and Sarath Reddy of Aurobindo Pharma.
