Sourav Ganguly joins Mudgal committee probe

By The Assam Tribune

NEW DELHI, June 19 (PTI): Former India captain Sourav Ganguly has joined the Supreme Court-appointed Justice (Retd) Mukul Mudgal committee probing the allegations of betting and spot-fixing in the sixth Indian Premier League.

Ganguly yesterday specially flew down here to attend the proceedings as the full committee met for the first time.

�Yes, Sourav joined the investigations today. It was the first time after his appointment that we met in person. The meeting took place at my office and I would like to think that discussions were indeed very fruitful,� Justice Mudgal told PTI.

�We had already sent the relevant documents that Sourav would have required to study before our meeting. He came well prepared. Beyond that I am not in a position to divulge anymore information. From now on any meeting of the committee will be held in my office,� he said.

Other members in the committee are Additional Solicitor General L Nageswara Rao, senior advocate Niloy Datta and senior IPS officer BB Mishra.

The Supreme Court had directed the probe committee to take a cricketer of �impeccable integrity� on board to assist them on the cricketing matters related to the scandal.
