The Anti-Corruption Unit (ACU) of the Board of Control for Cricket in India has been vigilant in its watch on untoward elements during the Indian Premier League. So far in IPL 2024, the ACU has evicted suspected bookies from two venues, both involving Rajasthan Royals, in Mumbai and Jaipur.
According to a BCCI official, the ACU handed over two suspected bookies to local police from a corporate box during Rajasthan Royals’ home game against Delhi Capitals on March 28. Later, on April 1 (during the MI-RR game), two suspects were handed over to police from the MCA President’s Box at the Wankhede Stadium.
While an FIR was lodged against both individuals in Jaipur, the case in Mumbai ended up being a possible case of mistaken identity.
