The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is currently conducting raids at the residence of Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) MLC K. Kavitha in Hyderabad. Kavita, who is the daughter of former Chief Minister KCR, has been implicated in the Delhi liquor scam and has previously been summoned by both the ED and CBI for questioning.
Alongside the ED team, the Income Tax (IT) department is also present at the scene.
The 45-year-old leader from BRS did not attend the Enforcement Directorate's session on January 16 for further interrogation in the case. Citing a Supreme Court directive that she cannot summon Kavitha in the matter, she abstained from the proceedings.
However, sources within the Enforcement Directorate informed news agency PTI that the BRS leader had secured temporary relief from the apex court last year, but it is no longer applicable.
