BRS MLC Kavitha named as accused by CBI in Delhi liquor scam

Hyderabad: The Delhi liquor scam case has taken a significant turn as the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has added BRS MLC Kalvakuntla Kavitha as an accused in the case. She has been ordered to appear for investigation at the CBI office in Delhi on the 26th of this month. The summons were issued under section 41A, indicating that she is required to be present for questioning. 

The CBI had previously issued notices to Kavitha to appear for questioning on the same date, but those earlier notices had identified her only as a witness. The change in her status from a witness to an accused has caused concern among BRS ranks.

Kavitha was interrogated by the CBI last December, and the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has questioned her three times to date. It remains to be seen whether Kavitha will attend the CBI investigation or seek legal recourse. The shift from being merely a witness to now being listed as an accused marks a critical turn in the case's investigation, generating widespread interest in the developments to come.
