Mumbai: Mumbai Police today detained one more bookie at the international airport here in connection with the IPL betting racket. "We have detained Kishore Badlani alias Kishore Pune at the Mumbai international airport," said police sources.
Badlani, who had reportedly gone to Europe after his name cropped up in the betting racket, was taken into custody on his return, they said. Police are now questioning Badlani as he could be a major link between the bookies in India and Pakistan. Meanwhile, CSK team owner Gurunath Meiyappan and actor Vindoo Randhawa, will be produced in the court later in the day as their police custody ends today.
On May 31, a Mumbai court had extended the police remand of Meiyappan, Vindoo and two others arrested in the IPL betting case till June 3 after prosecution sought further custody to unravel their connection with absconding bookies. On Saturday, Mumbai cops got the custody of Delhi-based bookie Ashwin Agarwal alias Tinku Delhi in the betting case.
