IPL verdict: Key observations made by SC.
Here are some of the key observations made by Supreme Court in the IPL spot-fixing case.
N. Sirinavasan can not contest BCCI elections till such time he has conflict of interest in CSK, wherein, in a meeting he chaired SN allowed IRS. 13 crore to CSK for match compensation.
Charges of cover-up against BCCI president-in-exile N Srinivasan not proved.
BCCI’s rule amendment of 6.2.4 which gave right to BCCI’s official to have stake in IPL is the main villain.
Conflict of interest in cricket leads to confusion.
It cannt be said with certainty there Srinivasan was involved in covering up role of Meyppan in betting scandal:
At most it can be said that there is suspicion againt Srinivasan for covering up
Raj Kundra and Gurunath’s role in betting stands proved
BCCI decision is amenable to judicial review
Not only players and team officials but franchise be also punished for misconduct
BCCI did not adhere to prescribed procedure while conduccting probe in IPL spot fixing scandal
SC holds that Kundra and Meiyappan are team officials
Amendment in BCCI rules allowing srinivasan to own IPL team is bad
Conflict of interest in cricket leads to great confusion
Amendment in 6.2.4 in BCCI rules is the real villian
Amendment negates the very essence of game
