A Lasudiya police team led by inspector in-charge PS Ranawat swooped on the cricket betting racket operating at a duplex house in posh Mahalaxmi Nagar Colony in Eastern Indore in the afternoon. The cops arrested six men from the spot, who were employed by the alleged racket kingpin Ajay Goel.
The six men aged between 23 and 33 years, admitted to the police about operating the racket from the rented duplex House No. 130-MR3 since the last few months on behalf of the racket kingpin and Indore resident Ajay Goel.
Several paper chits recovered from the spot revealed that over Rs 2 crore had been pooled from all over the state and outside to make quick bucks by betting on Australia-England match, Lasudiya police station in-charge PS Ranawat told TOI.
The six arrested men were identified as Mangi Lal, Danny Kushwah, Kailash Solanki, Pawan Mukati (all residents of Barwani), Rajesh Garg, a resident of Rau-Indore and Rahul Singh, a resident of Indore's Vijay Nagar locality.
Three of the arrested were school dropouts, while Rahul had dropped out of BBA course and Rajesh was a B.Com pass out.
All these jobless youths were working for the racket kingpin and getting monthly remuneration spanning between Rs 8,000 and Rs 15,000.
Money was being pooled by punters via the 21-line virtual telephone exchange on various counts spanning from who wins the match, per innings score, death over runs and best bat and best bowler.
The police team comprising head constables, Chandrashekhar Patel, Atul Sharma and constables Santosh Choti, Mukesh Yadav and Jaideep swooped into the duplex, just when the racket operators were transacting over phone from clients based in 21 cities in MP and outside.
"They were using 39 cell-phones to link with cricket punters based in 21 cities, particularly the entire Malwa-Nimar region. The match was being seen by the operators live on two LED sets installed in two rooms on the first floor of the duplex," Ranawat added.
Besides, the two LEDs, the police also seized Rs 7,000 cash, 3 laptops, one switch-box, 30 cell-phones, two modems, a keyboard and a voice recorder.
The arrested men revealed that the racket kingpin was targeting Rs 5 lakh to Rs 10 lakh daily profit from the triangular series matches in the Down Under ahead of the ICC World Cup, which too was likely to render them a daily profit of Rs 15 lakh to Rs 20 lakh.
