Indian batsman Shubham Gill caught in Rs 450 crore scam, CID summons

Whether or not Shab Gill will take part in the fifth is yet to be decided after the Barr-Gavaskar Trophy Test matchham dropped to fourth and before that came bad news for him. A media report said that Shubman Gul has admitted to a scam of Rs 450 crore. The news that is coming out says that Shubman along with many other players of Gujarat Titans are also involved in this scam.

‘Ahmedabad Mirror’ has published a report in this regard which states that along with Shubman Gul, there are names of Sai Sudarshan, Rahul Tivatiya and Mohit Sharma who are involved in the Rs 450 crore scam. This scam is linked to Gujarat based company ‘BZ Group’. In this, summons were also sent to the concerned cricketers by the Gujarat Crime Investigation Department (ID) in C.

The BZ Group has promised higher interest rates to investors than the bank. When that didn’t happen, you got the police response. The report of ‘Ahmedabad Mirror’ is saying that the Gujarat Titans player has also invested in the Ponji scheme. CID now informs them in this regard. According to the report, Shubman Gill has invested Rs 1.95 crore, while the rest of the players have put in smaller amounts. Aam Gul is still in Australia, so the CID will be asked to send it back.

It is also being told in the media report that Gujarat CID also arrested a person in this scam. His name is Bhupinder Singh Jhala who has been arrested from Mehsana district. Bhupinder told the police that even the players of Gujarat Titans have not accepted interest so far.
