Cricket betting racket busted
Staff Reporter
BANGALORE:
The Central Crime Branch officials on Thursday busted a cricket-betting racket by arresting seven people. The police seized from them Rs. 31.50 lakhs in cash, 23 mobile phones, a colour television set, a computer and a laptop.
The police said the accused were taking bets on the fourth one-day international cricket match between India and Pakistan in Multan on Thursday.
The accused were taking bets directly and over phone, the police said. On a tip-off, the police raided a house in Mahalakshmi Layout police station limits and arrested the alleged bookies. Their names were given as Vishnu Sahani (60), Bhagwan Sahani (56), Jaideep Sahani (27), Harish Nagpal (24), Amith (21), Moolchand (21) and Karthik (23). The Mahalakshmi Layout police have registered a case.
In November 2005, the Basavanagudi police busted a cricket-betting racket and seized Rs. 8.26 lakhs in cash by arresting four bookies. The police raided a garment shop on D.V.G Road and arrested its proprietor Sampathraj and three others.
