Mumbai, Dec 25 (ANI): The Bombay High Court on Saturday
stayed the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI)’s disciplinary
committee’s proceedings against former
Indian Premier League (IPL) Chairman Lalit Modi on charges of financial
irregularities in the conduct of the cash-rich T20 Cricket tournament.

Modi’s counsel Mehmood Abdi had earlier challenged the
legality of the three-member disciplinary committee - comprising Chirayu Amin,
Arun Jaitley and Jyotiraditya Scindia, saying that the three-member
disciplinary panel did not have the BCCI General Body’s mandate.

Abdi also alleged that the BCCI had forgotten to
re-constitute the Committee for the year 2010-2011 at its Annual General
Meeting (AGM) held in September.

The Bombay High Court had earlier stayed the termination of
IPL franchisees Kings XI Punjab and Rajasthan Royals. (ANI)
