Srinagar, Nov 03 :
Following reports of chaos, cancellations and unpaid dues surrounding the private cricket league – Indian Heaven Premier League (IHPL) T20 in Srinagar, police have filed a case and initiated a probe into the matter.
A top police officer told the news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO), that an FIR under relevant sections of law has been registered, while a probe is underway.
Reportedly, players associated with the league alleged that they were not paid their promised payments and were asked not to come to the stadium due to “technical issues.”
Some also claimed they were asked to vacate their hotel accommodations.
The IHPL featured several local and international cricketers, but was not recognised either by the BCCI or the JKCA, raising questions about its legitimacy.—(KNO)
