The court in Delhi has postponed the hearing on MLC Kavitha’s bail petition. The final arguments will now be heard on August 5, 2024. Kavitha was arrested in connection with the Delhi liquor scam case. She was first taken into custody by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on March 15, 2024, and then by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on April 11, 2024.

Background of the Case

Kavitha is accused of being involved in a scam related to the Delhi liquor policy. She is alleged to be part of a group that paid bribes to get liquor licenses in Delhi. This group includes several influential people who are said to have tried to change the policy for their own benefit.

Legal Journey

Kavitha first asked the High Court for bail, but her request was denied. She then went to the trial court. During the hearings, her lawyers pointed out that the charge sheet filed by the CBI was incomplete and had many errors. The court agreed that there were problems with the charge sheet.

Kavitha’s lawyers argued that the CBI did not file a complete charge sheet within the required 60 days. According to the law, this means she can ask for default bail. By July 6, 2024, Kavitha had been in custody for 86 days without a complete charge sheet being filed.

Current Status

The court has now set the next hearing date for August 5, 2024. This delay has left many people waiting to see what the court will decide. The upcoming hearing will discuss the issues with the CBI’s charge sheet and whether Kavitha’s arrest and detention were lawful.

The decision in this case is important and will affect many people. It will also clarify Kavitha’s legal status in this ongoing investigation.
