The Delhi Police had arrested two men who had been suspected to be involved in betting from the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Sunday, May 2. The two were reportedly working for hospitality.
In an exclusive conversation with OneCricket, Additional DCP (Central) Rohit Meena said that the investigation is going on. He further added that there are different angles that the Police are investigating regarding the case.
“There is an investigation going on for now about how they got there. We are investigating different angles in this case,” he said.
The Additional DCP further added that two men had the accreditation as well.
“They had the accreditation card as well so we are also investigating as to how they got this. We are also trying to figure out how authentic these cards are and by what means did they get them,” he added.
Both the accused had been produced before a Delhi Court and were sent to a five-day custody. “The two have been sent into custody for five days,” the Additional DCP said.
A similar sort of incident happened at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad last week where two men were caught by the BCCI’s anti-corruption unit for passing information on phone and were later on handed to the Police.
The IPL 2021 had been suspended with immediate effect earlier this week after there was a rise in COVID-19 cases within the franchise teams.
