Delhi Court Orders Fresh Probe Against Gautam Gambhir In Cheating Case

The judge noted Gautam Gambhir was the only accused who had a "direct interface with the investors" in his capacity as a brand ambassador.

Directing a fresh investigation, a Delhi court has set aside the discharge of former cricketer and current head coach of the Indian cricket team Gautam Gambhir, and others in a case where flat buyers were reportedly cheated.

Special Judge Vishal Gogne set aside a magisterial court order, saying it reflected "inadequate expression of mind" in deciding the allegations against Mr Gambhir.

"The allegations also merit further investigation into the role of Gautam Gambhir," Judge Gogne wrote in his October 29 order.
