New Delhi: The Supreme Court suggested setting up a three-member panel, headed by former chief justice of Punjab and Haryana High Court Mukul Mudgal, to probe alleged betting and spot-fixing in the Indian Premier League.
The apex court bench sought the respective views of the petitioner Cricket Association of Bihar (CAB) and respondent BCCI on its suggestion for the probe panel.
The apex court was dealing with a petition by CAB seeking an interim ban preventing BCCI chairman N Srinivasan from being a member of any committee of the BCCI.
The Supreme Court also proposed the names of Additional Solicitor General L Nageswara Rao, a former cricketer, and senior advocate Nilay Dutta, who is also member of the Assam Cricket Association (ACA), as the other two members in the committee.
The apex court asked the counsel of the CAB and the BCCI to come up with their suggestions and adjourned the case until Tuesday morning.
The Supreme Court last Monday declined to revoke its order restraining Srinivasan from assuming office after being re-elected on September 29. (IANS)
