The BCCI is likely to impose a life ban on former IPL Commissioner Lalit Modi in its Special General Meeting (SGM) which will be convened on September 25 at Chennai.
This comes after a Working Committee meeting at Kolkata on Sunday looked into the report by the disciplinary committee on the alleged financial regularities and improper auctioning. The disciplinary committee, consisting of Jyotiraditya Scindia and Arun Jaitley, suggested imposing a life ban.
"The committee's report has suggested imposing a life ban on Lalit Modi. To decide on his fate, a special general body meeting has been summoned in Chennai on September 25 to decide on the issue. As of now, the life ban looks imminent," cricketnext.com quoted a BCCI official as saying.
The imposition of life ban on Modi will require at least 21 members to be in favour, or two-thirds majority.
Modi was the IPL commissioner-cum-chairman from its first edition in 2008 to 2010. A three-member committee comprising Jaitley, Scindia, and president N Srinivasan was formed to look into the issue. However, Srinivasan recused himself from the position as did his replacement Chirayu Amin later to reduce it to a two-member committee.
Meanwhile, the Supreme Court will decide on September 11 if President N Srinivasan can chair the SGM. The BCCI had moved the Supreme Court appealing against the Bombay HC order which had declared the spot-fixing probe to be unconstitutional.
"The SGM on September 25 will also serve a dual purpose--it will be a dress rehearsal for the AGM on September 29. The equations will become clear that day," the official added.
