Former Proteas cricketer Gulam Bodi could face criminal charges

Johannesburg - Former Proteas cricketer Gulam Bodi could face criminal charges as his case of match-fixing is handed over to the SA Police Service (SAPS).

A Cricket SA (CSA) board meeting was held on Friday, and released a statement saying the SAPS would deal with any criminal charges.

Bodi, 37, was banned for 20 years from the game on Monday by CSA who found the player guilty of trying to fix matches in the domestic RAM SLAM T20 tournament last year.

“The Board received an update on the corruption matter and noted that the matter had been reported last year by CSA to the relevant crime unit of the South African Police Services who will now deal with any criminal aspects of the investigation,” said CSA in a statement.

“The Board is satisfied with the progress that has been made so far and with the lengthy ban that was imposed on Mr Bodi,” said Board Chairman, Chris Nenzani. “We will strongly uphold our stance of zero tolerance on any corruption matter. The internal investigation under the CSA Anti-Corruption Code continues and we are confident that our experienced investigative team will leave no stone unturned.”
