Court clears deck for BCCI to expel ex-IPL chief Lalit Modi
September 24, 2013
The Delhi High Court on Tuesday vacated the stay order issued by a trial
court barring the Board of Control for Cricket in India from holding
its Special General Meeting in Chennai tomorrow (September 25).
The BCCI
moved the High Court on Monday to challenge the order that restrained
the BCCI from conducting the SGM where the Board is expected to ban
former Indian Premier League commissioner Lalit Modi.
The trial
court order was issued last Saturday after Lalit Modi challenged the
validity of the SGM. On Tuesday, Justice VK Shali heard BCCI's plea.
The
BCCI lawyers contended that the trial court had no jurisdiction over
the matter as the SGM is scheduled to be held in Chennai. Modi's lawyers
are likely to appeal to the Supreme Court on Wednesday. -- NDTV
