In a significant development in the Delhi liquor policy case, Kavitha, who was arrested and lodged in Tihar Jail, has withdrawn her default petition. After being denied regular bail, Kavitha initially filed a default petition. The court, which heard the petition yesterday, scheduled further proceedings for tomorrow. However, Kavitha chose to withdraw the petition today.
Kavitha’s lawyer informed the court about the withdrawal, citing the possibility of pursuing alternative legal avenues as per the law. The court was duly notified of this decision.
Kavitha had originally filed a default bail plea on July 6, alleging errors in the CBI chargesheet. However, the CBI countered these claims, asserting that the chargesheet was error-free. On July 22, the court stated it was reviewing the CBI’s chargesheet. The hearing on the chargesheet is scheduled for August 9.
