Jammu and Kashmir Cricket Association (JKCA) Friday claimed to have unearthed another scam in the association worth Crores of rupees.
The disclosure comes just a day after High Court of Jammu and Kashmir ordered a time-bound CBI probe into a 2012- multi-crore scam in the association, involving office bearers and politicians.
General Secretary JKCA, Iqbal Ahmed Shah told reporters during a presser today in Srinagar that the scam pertains to the year 2008 when Crores of rupees received from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) have been embezzled by the then office bearers.
“Some officials had opened a bank account at Zoonimar branch of Jammu and Kashmir Bank where the loans of Crores of rupees were raised and then liquidated by crediting the CCR’s of the JKCA.
“Since the Court has ordered CBI to probe an earlier scam, we hope the agency will probe this scam as well,” Shah said. (CNS)
