Now, a case of cheating has been filed against the 2007 T20 World Cup-winning cricketer.
The 40-year-old Sreesanth has been accused of cheating an individual by taking money from him on the promise of making him a partner in a sports academy.
Kannur’s Sareegh Balagopalan, who filed the complaint, stated that Udupi natives Rajiv Kumar and K Venkatesh Kinni took Rs 18.70 lakh from him on the promise that they will construct a building at a resort owned in Karnataka’s Kollur.
