Sabarimala (Kerala): Out-on-bail in connection
with his involvement in the spot-fixing scandal that marred the recently
concluded IPL, former Rajasthan Royals pacer S Sreesanth has pleaded
innocence, yet again.
Accompanied by his father Santhakumaran Nair and other close family
members at Sabarimala Ayyappa temple here to seek divine intervention
to help him through the crisis, Sreesanth said, “I haven't done anything
wrong to get accused in the spot fixing case. Some minor lapses might
have happened on my side in the past. But I am totally innocent in the
present case. I am confident of proving that."
"With the blessings of Lord Ayyappa, I will come out clean and that will be a new Sreesanth," he added.
Sreesanth arrived at the temple on Friday evening, trekking the
five kilometre path from the base camp to the shrine located atop the
Sabari hill.
Sreesanth and Rajasthan Royals teammate Ankeet Chavan were released on bail on June 11.
The duo and another RR player Ajit Chandila were arrested on May
16, along with 11 bookies, from Mumbai by Delhi Police for their alleged
involvement in spot-fixing.
