Sreesanth, Chandilla and Ankit Chavan arrested for spot fixing in IPL

[PriyankaSR]

What an embarrassment for Dravid. Feeling sad for him. :((

[Straight Drive]

Salman Butt had said he had huge cash in lockers because he wanted to start ice cream business in UK during the test series .Sreesanth should contact him and give him loan for the same. :hysterical:

[CSK Fan]

We don't know why he did this' date=' if he actually did this. Maybe its just a case of him not reporting the names of bookies for fear of life of family but he actually wouldn't have done what was asked of him to do. Can be anything.[/quote'] Nope, then Delhi police wouldn't have actually arrested him. Just asked him question. Not reporting approach of a bookie is not a legal crime, so players can't be arrested for that

barkha dutt @BDUTT Inspector investigating the spot fixing case found dead over weekend. The rot deepens. Ominous nexus and the power it wields

exactly.. they arrested based on evidence.they would not have mentioned money if it was not involved . thye cannot arrest cricketers like this if they are not 100 percent certain

Why do you think no political interference happens now? Cricket runs primarily by politicians.

Did I say no political interference happens now? But since such a high-profile case has been registered now, politicians can hardly stop anything in this case.

Its good that investigation is going on as this tournament is being played to catch any fixers. Its important to clean the system.

It is important to keep players away from things and people which can corrupt them. Every player does not have a great morality and they are prone to become victim of such elements. It is not really good that we found them only after they have committed the sin. They need to be proactive about this and need to ensure that players dont come up in contacts of corrupt people.

are they arrested or charged? I do believe police have 24 hours before charging them

[Magneto]

Sresanth is such a bad bowler. He bowls fulltosses every match. Read what is written' date=' it is like WWE, everyone can be involved, even the organizers.[/quote'] Are you even understanding the point we are making here? Sreesanth has not been arrested for bowling full-tosses, he has been arrested for documented negotiation with the bookies and performing accordingly. There may have been exchange of money as well. If he has influenced the other two, more cases of conspiracy and cheating.

:WTF:

[FischerTal]

this case gets more shady with that inspector's death :nervous:

[Magneto]

What happened to innocent until proven guilty, if they are released without any charges, will you then blame BCCI for covering it up? Talking to hawala guys doesnt mean one is involved in illegal activities, hawala is just cheaper method of converting money.

With the kind of evidences that can be produced overnight nowadays, a lot of cases are a foregone conclusion. This might be probably one of them.

do u think they will arrest cricketers like this? they will be charged soon but till now arresting of police and even finding evidence gives us good enough proof that this is real deal and they have spot fixed matches.. details will surface soon dont worry but u can be assured these guys are done for:winky:

So what if they found money' date=' these guys are rich and socialise with mega rich people, money exchange hands everytime they handshake with each other.[/quote'] Not stackloads of unaccounted 'cash'.

[adi B]

hope sreesath spills out every bit of truth i.e why he did this,who all are involved,connections,how big is the network etc while being questioned by the police.. would like to know how deep is this sh1t!

[Lord]

btw do these guys face jail term if convicted like the Paki trio?What does Indian law say on that?

[GoldenSun]

Im really sure there is a mafia behind cricket match/spot fixing. Cronje was believed to be killed by them too(yes im going on a limb here).

[Magneto]

Arrested for 'cheating and conspiracy' now. The full chargesheet (as usual) will take at least a month.

You are already talking as if he is guilty. He could just be a friend to someone who happens to be a bookie and may have met him over a period of time. Who knows ? Let's wait till the investigation is over.
