The apex court said this while striking down an amendment to the BCCI
rules which permitted the office bearers of the apex cricket body to
have commercial interests in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and the
Champions League Twenty20 and all events organised by the BCCI.
The apex court bench, headed by Justice TS Thakur, held Srinivasan's son-in-law and CSK "official" Gurunath Meiyappan, and IPL franchise Rajasthan Royals' co-owner Raj Kundra guilty of betting and said the punishment will not only be confined to them but also extend to the franchises they represent.
The court set up a three-member committee headed by former Chief Justice RM Lodha to decide, besides other issues, the quantum of punishment to be given to Meiyappan and Kundra.
The court also asked Srinivasan to stay away from the BCCI on account of his commercial interest in CSK.
