Lalit Modi drops a bombshell, alleges blackmail racket tied to Rajeev Shukla's aide
Lalit Modi has taken to X to react to a report published by CricBlogger, claiming his sources had confirmed that the individual at the centre of a blackmail and corruption allegation was the secretary of senior BCCI official Rajeev Shukla.
The CricBlogger reported that a young cricketer, who had recently broken into the IPL, was allegedly approached by the secretary of a prominent board representative. The alleged demand was a financial commission in exchange for helping the player secure an IPL contract.
However, the cricketer reportedly declined to pay the amount. The secretary, according to the report, then allegedly began using information about the player's personal life as a tool for pressure.
When that approach also failed to produce results, the individual reportedly joined hands with a journalist to amplify certain aspects of the cricketer's private life on social media.
