Supreme Court directs probe against N Srinivasan and 12 players

16th May, In IPL betting and spot-fixing scandal, the Supreme Court on Friday directed a probe against N Srinivasan and 12 prominent players. 

The apex court turned down BCCI'S proposal to get the probe done by its panel. The task of investigation has now been given to Justice Mukul Mudgal Committee which had earlier also conducted the probe in the scandal. 

A bench headed by Justice A K Patnaik asked the Mudgal Committee to complete the probe and file its report by the end of August. 

It said that a group of investigators headed by senior IPS officer B B Mishra will assist the Mudgal Committee in the probe. 

BCCI had also informed the court that it had decided to constitute a three-member panel comprising former Calcutta High Court Chief Justice J N Patel, ex-CBI director R K Raghavan and former all-rounder Ravi Shastri.
