After hearing the arguments of the counsel for the Enforcement Directorate (ED), Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), and Kavitha, Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma reserved the orders on her bail applications.
Countering the submission made on behalf of Kavitha that she, being a woman, be released on bail, the probe agencies contended she played a key role in the conspiracy behind the "scam" and, being an active politician and a member of the Telangana legislative council, she cannot seek parity with "vulnerable" women.
