BCCI’s Anti-Corruption Security Unit asks IPL stakeholders to report any suspicious approaches

As reported by Cricbuzz, the BCCI’s Anti-Corruption Security Unit (ACSU) has warned all the franchises, including players, owners, support staff, umpires, and commentators, to report any approach made to them to promote any kind of corrupt activities. The report further states that a businessman from Hyderabad is seeking an opportunity to have a tie to promote betting in the IPL 2025.

This individual is suspected to have a link with the betting alliance and has been seen as a cricket fan trying to befriend the stakeholders involved in the IPL 2025. The businessman uses the method of approaching by offering expensive items to lure players and others.

The report stated, “One of the methods reportedly employed by him involves approaching family members of franchise owners, players, coaches, support staff, and even commentators.”

Some reports also confirmed that this individual was also involved in the spot-fixing activities in 2013 and was arrested back then. Hence, the ACSU has requested all the franchises and others to stay active if something happens and report them on a priority basis.
