BRS leader K Kavitha Tuesday said she is submitting the phones used by her so far to the Enforcement Directorate (ED) as she appeared for questioning before the agency in the Delhi excise policy linked money laundering case.

In a letter to the Enforcement Directorate, the 44-year-old MLC daughter of Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao, said “These phones are submitted without prejudice to my right and contentions and larger contentions whether a woman’s phone can be intruded, in the teeth of her right to privacy”. Before she entered the agency’s office here, Kavitha flashed some mobile phones kept in a transparent sheet, and said she was going to submit them to the ED.

Referring to the agency’s allegation in its first charge sheet filed in this case last year that she was using at least two mobile numbers whose IMEI changed 10 times, Kavitha said, “It is baffling to note as to how, why and under what such circumstances agency made such allegations when I was not even summoned or asked any questions whatsoever”.
