New Delhi/Mumbai: A Delhi court will today hear the bail petitions of Indian pacer S Sreesanth and 13 other accused, who have been arrested in connection with the IPL spot-fixing case by the Delhi Police.
Sreesanth was arrested on May 16 from Mumbai along with team mates Ajit Chandila and Ankeet Chavan. The three cricketers used to play for IPL franchise Rajasthan Royals.
Sreesanth, whose judicial custody also ends today, faces charges of underperforming in an IPL match played between Rajasthan Royals and Kings XI Punjab in Mohali on the behest of bookies. (Full coverage)
The Mumbai Police had raided a hotel on the night of May 17 and had recovered a laptop, mobile phones, iPads and Rs 72,000 in cash from the two rooms where Sreesanth and an alleged bookie Jiju Janardhan stayed. Diaries, written in English and Malayalam, were also recovered from the cricketer's room; cops said several of the entries were made by Sreesanth himself.
Mr Meiyappan and Vindu had filed bail petitions soon after the metropolitan magistrate remanded them to judicial custody yesterday. Urging the court to grant them bail, their lawyers argued that their custodial interrogation was not required.
The Delhi Police has so far arrested 26 people in the spot-fixing scam.
