Maharashtra Cong asks MCA to allow SRK in Wankhede
May 07, 2013 12:46
The Maharashtra Congress has requested the Mumbai Cricket Association to lift the five-year ban imposed on Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) owner Shah Rukh Khan. The MCA has said that the band imposed last year stands and he will not be able to attend his team's IPL match against hosts Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai today. The Mumbai police says allowing Shah Rukh Khan into Wankhede stadium is an internal matter of the MCA.
The Bollywood super star was banned for five years from entering MCA premises, including the Wankhede Stadium, by the Association's Managing Committee, headed by the late Vilasrao Deshmukh, on May 18 last year after he was involved in a skirmish with security staff and officials of the cricket body following KKR's victory over Mumbai Indians two nights earlier.
Khan, however, denied he had misbehaved and maintained he reacted only after children, including his kids, were "manhandled" by the security staff at the stadium.
