SLC to investigate Sri Lanka women cricket team's sex scandal
According to a Daily Mirror report, Sri Lanka Cricket’s executive committee have decided to start an immediate inquiry into the claims that the Sri Lanka women’s team management and national selectors have to be sexually bribed by players to be picked for representing their national side in an emergency meeting.
The website further claims that a sexual favour was required from the players to keep their places in the side after being selected. An unanimous decision was taken at the meeting after the claims were made public last week through a local media report.
A four-member probe panel involving SLC vice-president Mohan de Silva, secretary Nishantha Ranatunga, assistant secretary Hirantha Perera and chief men’s national selector Sanath Jayasuriya will look into the matter and file their report.
It is expected that the panel will summon the national selectors, team officials including the national team manager and coach, along with all members of the national squad to give evidence on the matter this upcoming Thursday.
