New Delhi: Delhi police investigations into the high-profile IPL-6 “fixing” case have established that underworld don Dawood Ibrahim is the “fountainhead of betting and spot fixing in India”.
This is precisely what the police are likely to state in an exhaustive 6,000 page charge sheet that is likely to be filed in a city court on Tuesday.
The police are likely to state that Dawood’s close associate, Chhota Shakeel, also played an active role in the betting syndicate, sources said. It is for this reason that the Delhi police plans to book three Rajasthan Royals players — S. Sreesanth, Ankeet Chavan and Ajit Chandila — under stringent provisions of the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act.
In addition, over 30 people are likely to be named as accused under MCOCA and various IPC sections. Those likely to be named include bookies Ramesh Vyas and Tinku Mandi, former Ranji Trophy player Babu Rao, Sreesanth’s close aide Jiju Janardhan and Mohammed Yahya, who was picked up as he was fleeing to Dubai.
The BCCI on Monday defended the report of its panel which inquired into the IPL spot-fixing scandal, saying they could not depend on the police report since the two member commission was already on the job. “I think we can't depend on the police report as we had already constituted a commission and whatever the commission said is final,” BCCI vice-president Niranjan Shah said.
Shah reiterated that the two-member probe panel comprising of Retd. Justice Jayaram Chouta and Retd. Justice R Balasubramanian had to continue the probe with whatever “available material“.
“I think BCCI can't do anything about it (on reports that Mumbai Police didn't co-operate with panel) as we have no control over it. So, we have to live with whatever material that is available to us,” Shah said.
However, Shah maintained that if any one of the accused is found guilty, BCCI will take immediate cognisance. “If anyone is convicted, the BCCI will take necessary action,” Shah said.

I want to begin with a little story that was told to me by a leading executive at Aptech. He was exercising in a gym with a lot of younger people.

Shekhar Kapur’s Bandit Queen didn’t make the cut. Neither did Shaji Karun’s Piravi, which bagged 31 international awards.
