HC: BCCI probe panel illegal; investigate Meiyappan, Kundra again
July 30, 2013  12:20
The Bombay High Court has questioned the appointment of the BCCI panel to probe the spot-fixing scandal. The HC has ruled that the panel is illegal and and has directed the BCCI to form a new panel.

The two-member probe panel, which was investigating the spot-fixing and betting scandal in the Indian Premier League, submitted its report to the Board of Control for Cricket in India. The report says that no evidence of spot-fixing has been found against Rajasthan Royals' co-owner Raj Kundra and Gurunath Meiyappan, son-in-law of N Srinivasan, who stepped aside as the BCCI president till the time the probe by the two-member team is completed.

With the new HC order, there will be a fresh panel to probe Meiyappan and Kundra. The HC says that the entire episode needs to be re investigated. The BCCI is likely to appeal to the Supreme Court over the HC ruling.
