'My arrest is illegal,' says K Kavitha as she appears in Delhi court day after being held in excise policy case

The BRS leader was arrested by the ED and brought to Delhi yesterday. She will be further questioned in connection with the Delhi excise policy-linked money laundering case.

The Enforcement Directorate on Saturday produced arrested BRS leader K Kavitha before a court here in a money laundering case linked to the now-scrapped Delhi excise policy. Kavitha while being produced in Delhi's Rouse Avenue court called her arrest "illegal".

Kavitha has been produced before the court of special judge M K Nagpal.

"We will fight it (case) out in court," the BRS leader told media persons while being produced before the court.

She was arrested by the central probe agency from her residence at Banjara Hills in Hyderabad last evening and brought to Delhi.
