Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) leader K Kavitha had allegedly “threatened” Aurobindo Pharma promoter Sharath Chandra Reddy to pay an amount of Rs 25 crore to the AAP for the five retail zones allotted to his firm under the Delhi government’s excise policy, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) told a special Delhi court.

According to the CBI, Kavitha had told Reddy that in case he did not pay the amount to the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in the national capital, his business would be harmed in Telangana and Delhi, sources reported.

Reddy, who was an accused in a money-laundering case linked to the alleged liquor scam in Delhi, had turned an approver in the case that is being probed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED). The CBI has yet to file a chargesheet against him.
