Supreme Court of India(SC)on Friday Oct 07,2016 dismissed a plea by BJP leader Subramanian Swamy
challenging the two-year ban imposed on IPL franchisee Chennai Super
Kings (CSK) over the 2013 betting scam involving its top official
Gurunath Meiyappan.
A bench headed by Chief Justice T S Thakur rejected the plea in which Swamy had alleged that there were no allegations against either former BCCI President N Srinivasan or against any members of CSK and hence the ban imposed by the Justice R M Lodha panel was "illegal, arbitrary and unreasonable".
The Lodha panel had banned CSK and Rajasthan Royals after holding that its top officials like Raj Kundra and Gurunath Meiyappan were found involved in betting.
BJP leader Subramanian Swamy had said he had nothing against the Lodha panel and was confining himself to the ban on CSK which has become victim of "conspiracy".
The apex court had reserved its order on Swamy's plea on October 4.
During the hearing on the plea, the bench, also comprising Justices A M Khanwilkar and D Y Chandrachud, had observed that the Lodha panel findings and its recommendation to ban CSK and Rajasthan Royals has "become final".
