Jaipur, July 23: Six months after the police started an investigation against him in a case of an alleged cheque dishonour, IPL chairman Lalit Modi got a reprieve today with the Rajasthan High Court staying the proceedings.
A single bench of Justice R S Rathore in its order restrained police from taking any further action in the matter against Modi who has been given anticipatory bail in the case by the High Court.
The case relates to a cheque handed over by Modi to the state government as assistance for the Jaipur bomb blast victims on May 17 last year.
An amount of Rs 6 crore was to be pooled by the eight participating teams and the then four sponsors of IPL season One.
But only an amount of Rs 5.
