Hyderabad March 15
Former Minister and Working President of the BRS party, KTR, found himself in a heated dispute with Enforcement Directorate (ED) officers Bhanupriya and Meena over the arrest of BRS MLC Kavitha. Expressing his anger towards them, KTR, along with Harish Rao, rushed to Kavitha’s residence upon learning of her arrest. During the inquiry, KTR, visiting Kavitha at her home, vented his frustration towards the ED officers, a video of which surfaced later.
Bhanupriya and Meena, the ED officers, maintained that they had issued an arrest warrant following their investigations, providing the necessary documentation. They also cited an order prohibiting entry into the house after the completion of their searches, further fueling the discontent.
KTR raised questions about the ED officers’ actions, particularly their contradictory stance to the Supreme Court, where they had previously indicated Kavitha wouldn’t be arrested. He warned of impending legal challenges and criticized their choice of timing, specifically targeting their decision to act on a Friday. Additionally, he queried the absence of a transit warrant for Kavitha’s transfer.
