Mumbai, July 3 (PTI): Lalit Modi’s expulsion from the BCCI appeared almost certain today with a Special General Meeting unanimously ratifying all charges against him and authorising Board President Shashank Manohar to initiate civil and criminal proceedings against the suspended IPL chief.
It also referred the charges against Modi to a re-constituted disciplinary committee which now has Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia replacing Manohar, who recused himself after Modi accused him of bias.
Manohar said criminal proceedings could be started against Modi for financial bunglings while issuing IPL contracts and rights.
The house, after deliberation and debate on the matter, resolved that the Board President has the right to start any legal proceedings, including civil and criminal proceedings, against Mr Modi, he told a press conference.
The civil and criminal matters would be decided after inquiry and that is for the disciplinary committee to decide. – (Press Trust of India)
