The Morning Standard
|June 19, 2025
EXPANDING its investigation into the illegal online betting apps case, the Enforcement Directorate has questioned and recorded statements of cricketers and celebrities, including Harbhajan Singh, Suresh Raina and Urvashi Rautela, sources said on Wednesday.
They were questioned as part of the ED's investigation into promotion of banned online betting app platforms like 1xBet. The platforms were using 'surrogate names', such as 1xbat, in ad campaigns that include web links and QR codes to redirect users to the original (and illegal) betting platform in blatant violation of current laws, said sources.
