Hyderabad: The ongoing dispute between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and the Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) has taken a serious turn, with the CID arresting HCA President Jaganmohan Rao and another individual. The arrests follow a vigilance report that confirmed misuse of power and undue pressure on the SRH franchise during the last IPL season.
The controversy stemmed from a dispute over match ticket allocations. SRH management had accused the HCA of denying them access to tickets and locking the corporate box after they refused to comply with certain demands. In response, the SRH team reportedly threatened to shift its base out of Hyderabad.
The Telangana government had ordered a vigilance inquiry into the matter. The investigation revealed that the HCA President had indeed pressurised the SRH franchise, causing operational hurdles during the tournament. Following these findings, the CID recently registered a formal case and proceeded with arrests after a detailed probe.
