CBI sleuths' leave for New Delhi without visiting BCCI office

The Central Bureau of Investigtion (CBI) sleuths, who were in Mumbai to enquire into the telecast rights sold by top officials of the the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), left for New Delhi on Monday night without visiting the BCCI office.

"The CBI team headed by deputy superintendent Nikhil Duggal rang up our office last night and said they had received a phone call from their Delhi office asking them to leave for Delhi immediately," BCCI executive secretary Sharad Diwadkar told PTI in Mumbai today.

When queried weather the team would be coming back to visit the BCCI office later this week, Diwadkar said, "I really don't know, they may or may not come at all."

Diwadkar along with Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) joint secretary Prof Ratnakar Shetty had hosted a luncheon for the two CBI sleuths yesterday and the officers who were to visit the BCCI office today, left without doing so.
