Kuldeep Yadav and Lakshay Thareja, who represent Delhi U23 team, sent home for harassing women in a hotel at Kolkata, where the team stayed for their next match.
According to a report in The Indian Express, the two cricketers went to a Christmas party at the hotel and they harassed, chased two women and went on to knock their room door as well. The action was caught on the CCTV camera and based on the complaint from the women, the two cricketers were shifted to a different hotel and later was asked to leave home.
While there were no police complaints, DDCA was quick to take action and sent their director Sanjay Bhardwaj to Kolkata to bring things under control.
“Sanjay Bhardwaj is in Kolkata. The two boys are not playing the match against Bengal that started today. They are being sent back home for this serious breach of conduct. What we are hearing that they allegedly knocked on the doors of a female staffer and were identified by CCTV footage,” a senior DDCA official was quoted as saying by India Today.
“Luckily, there has been no police complaint after the Delhi team tendered an unconditional apology to the hotel authorities,” he added.
