The top court noted that Kavitha is behind bars for five months and the trial will take a long time to complete as there are 493 witnesses and many documents.
Meanwhile, the Supreme Court granted her bail in connection with the ‘excise policy case’ by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Enforcement Directorate (ED). (ANI)
