Club discusses cash in Gavaskar%u2019s locker 07 July, 2000
Mumbai: The general body of the Bombay Gymnkhana club met here Thursday evening to discuss the discovery of a huge amount of cash in a locker belonging to cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar.
However, most of the members refused to speak on the outcome of the meeting.
Gavaskar who was supposed to give his version of the matter however decided to stay away from the meeting.
Kamal Morarka, one of the Vice-Presidents of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, was one of the few members who spoke about the controversy. He said, ''It was nobody's business to know what was kept in the locker. Do we ask any person what is there in his pocket''.
Soon after the match-fixing controversy broke out, there were reports that a lot of cash was found in Gavaskar's locker in September 1999. His wife Marshneil had said that since it was during those times when the cricket star was flying in and out of the country for his commentary work, he had no time to deposit the money in the bank and had put in the cash, which could run into thousands, in the locker.
