Early Times Report
srinagar, Sept 4: A day after High Court directed probe through an independent agency in to infamous scam in Jammu and Kashmir Cricket Association (JKCA), another scam worth crores of rupees has surfaced in the cricket body. General Secretary JKCA, Iqbal Ahmed Shah during a press conference here said that the scam pertains to the year 2007- 2008 when crores of rupees received from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) have been embezzled by the then office bearers in JKCA.
He said that some officials of JKCA had opened a bogus bank account amounting to Rupees 15 Crore at Zoonimar branch of Jammu and Kashmir Bank where the loans of Crores of rupees were raised and then liquidated by crediting the cash credit certificates (CCR's) of the JKCA.
"You cannot find accounts of Rupees 113 crore sanctioned between 2003 to 2011,President, Treasure and other signatories have signed checks to withdraw money amounting to rupees 85,90,95 lakhs on several occasion and when we asked for accounts we could not even find records of money sanctioned by BCCI. "Shah said.
Shah told Early Times that they are in process to expose more scams in coming days with all the necessary details and such revelations according to him will surprise everybody in Jammu and Kashmir. The disclosure comes just a day after High Court of Jammu and Kashmir ordered a time-bound Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into a multi-crore scam in JKCA allegedly involving former Chief Minister, Dr Farooq Abdullah.
The Division Bench of Jammu and Kashmir High Court comprising Chief Justice N P Vasanthakumar and Justice B L Bhat, on Thursday ruled out handing over the case to State investigating agency saying that it can get influenced due to alleged involvement of former Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir, Dr Farooq Abdullah.
The High Court last month had reserved its verdict on handing over investigations of the matter to any other investigating agency. Court in its fresh verdict said that it is a fit case for handing over to CBI for investigation through an unbiased manner and ordered that "we are of the considered opinion that it is a fit case where the investigation must be handed over to Central Bureau of Investigation for purposes of fair and result oriented investigation."
At a time when Court directed the Registrar Judicial to send the copy of the judgment to the Director CBI for taking the investigation in hand and bringing the same to a logical end, as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of six months, JKCA office bearers want CBI to investigate fresh revelations about money embezzlement made by them today.
The PIL was filed by two cricket players for seeking high level team to investigate FIR No. 27/12 registered in police station Ram Munshi Bagh, Srinagar regarding embezzlement of huge money in JKCA during the year 2012.
National conference (NC) patron Dr Farooq Abdullah is in news headlines since 2012 allegedly for money swindling in JKCA along with his close associates who served on top posts in JKCA. |
