Lawyer of S Sreesanth, Deepak Prakash, claims that his client has been falsely accused of spot-fixing in IPL 6. He believes that Delhi police has falsely or mistakenly arrested Sreesanth.

“Sreesanth has been falsely or mistakenly arrested. They (Delhi Police) have got some wrong information or mistakenly arrested him,” said Prakash.

Delhi police detained cricketer Sreesanth, Ankeet Chavan and Ajit Chandila for spot-fixing in Indian Premier League (IPL) matches on Wednesday night. Police has also arrested six bookies for cheating and criminal conspiracy. Sources have confirmed that Chavan confessed to the crimes under interrogation on Friday while Prakash maintains that his confession has no value.

“They (players) have to confess before the court. Police can say anything, it has no value at all. Anyway, Sreesanth is not confessing. Though his name has been involved, there is no issue with Sreesanth. He will fight it out. He is completely cooperating and has explained his innocence,” said the lawyer.

Prakash further ridiculed the statements of Delhi police who alleged that Sreesanth used a towel to signal bookies before the start of an over. Prakash said that a majority of players use towels due to hot weather.

“It’s a very casual thing. Ninety percent of the players use towels. The match was played at 4 o’clock… the towel was needed,” he said.
