Supreme Court seeks BCCI response on threat to CFO Santosh Rangnekar

The Supreme Court yesterday sought responses from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and its Treasurer Anirudh Chaudhary on allegations that he had threatened the BCCI's Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Santosh Rangnekar with 'liquidation' on three occasions. Chief justice Dipak Misra, justice AM Khanwilkar and 9ustice DY Chandrachud sought the response after amicus curiae Gopal Subramanium produced an e-mail by the CFO to Vinod Rai - head of the Committee of Administrators managing the cricket affairs as an interim measure.
