So did Rajasthan Royals lie in the Sreesanth case? This company reached the Supreme Court; Learn the whole matter
S sreesanth related case in supreme court: Former Team India fast bowler Sreesanth is in discussion about the slap scandal these days. A new case has now come to light about Sreesanth, who played for Rajasthan Royals for a long time in the IPL, stating that his franchise Rajasthan lied. A company has applied in the Supreme Court regarding this lie. So let’s know what is the whole matter.
Actually the case is related to an insurance company. Rajasthan Royals demanded Rs 82 lakh from the insurance company, but the company refused to pay. The case is of 2012, when Srisanth was out of the entire season due to a knee injury.
Insurance company accused
Let me tell you that when Sreesanth was out of the tournament due to knee in the 2012 season, the franchise claimed Rs 82 lakh from the insurance company. Through the company, the claim was dismissed, saying that Sreesanth had an injury in the toe since 2011 and the company was not told about this injury.
The insurance company claimed that Sreesanth was not able to play due to the old ingestion, but the franchise believed that Sreesanth had no problem with the thumb injury but could not play due to a knee injury.
Supreme Court demands documents related to S Sreesanth
In this case, the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC) had earlier ordered the insurance company to pay the claim, while giving the verdict in favor of Rajasthan Royals. Now the company has appealed against this decision to the Supreme Court.
The decision on the matter is yet to come, but the Supreme Court bench has requested the rest of the doctules, including Sreesanth’s fitness certificate, to find out whether the already existing leg injury was revealed.
A bench of Justice Vikram Nath and Justice Sandeep Mehta, after hearing brief arguments, verbally asked whether the IPL franchise owner told the insurance company about Sreesanth’s leg injury.
Decision remains to come
The bench also said that if the insurance company knew about the foot injury, it should not have insured Sreesanth. It will now be interesting to see what is decided on this matter in the hearing.
