Raj Kundra.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has given a clean chit to Rajasthan Royals co-owner Raj Kundra and India Cements, owner of Chennai Super Kings in the IPL spot-fixing scandal.
According to reports, BCCI Vice President Niranjan Shah said at a BCCI Working Committee meeting in Kolkata that no evidence of any wrongdoing has been found by the judges against Raj Kundra, India Cements and Rajasthan Royals.
A two-member probe panel comprising of former judges T Jayaram Chouta and R Balasubramanian on Gurunath Meiyappan, has submitted its report to BCCI this afternoon.
The probe report will be forwarded to the IPL governing council, which will meet in here on August 2 for a final decision.
N. Srinivasan, who owns India Cements, had stepped aside as the BCCI chief after his son-in-law Gurunath Meiyappan, part of the Chennai Super Kings management, was arrested on charges of betting in IPL matches. He was later released on bail.
Earlier, Rajasthan Royals co-owner Raj Kundra was questioned by Delhi Police and was reported to have been betting on IPL matches.
The scandal broke up with the arrest of three cricketers — S Sreesanth, Ankeet Chavan and Ajit Chandila — during the middle of IPL 6.
