Delhi Excise policy | Supreme Court tags BRS leader Kavitha’s plea with pending cases challenging ED summons

The Hindu  

March 27, 2023 02:45 pm | Updated 03:38 pm IST - NEW DELHI The Supreme Court on March 27 indicated its intention to test the Centre’s claim that the Enforcement Directorate can summon Bharat Rashtra Samithi MLC Kalvakuntla Kavitha in the Delhi excise policy case, considering the court’s own judgment in 2022 which backed the Central agency’s vast powers under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act. In July 2022, a three-judge Bench of the apex court in Vijay Madanlal Choudhary versus Union of India upheld certain core amendments made to the PMLA which gave the government and the Enforcement Directorate virtually unbridled powers of summons, arrest, raids while making bail nearly impossible. In its 2022 judgment, the court had called the PMLA a law against the “scourge of money laundering” and not a hatchet wielded against rival politicians and dissenters. “This is a sui generis legislation… The Parliament enacted the Act as a result of international commitment to sternly deal with the menace of money laundering of proceeds of crime having transnational consequences and on the financial systems of the countries,” a Special Bench of Justices A.M. Khanwilkar, Dinesh Maheshwari and C.T.
