Sreesanth, Chavan and Chandila Arrested for Spot Fixing

In a high profile operation, Delhi Police Special Cell arrested cricketer S Sreesanth and two other cricketers on charges of spot-fixing. Ankeet Chavan and Ajit Chandila have been arrested as well with Seven bookies.
The initial interrogation have revealed that the parts of IPL matches at Mohali and Mumbai were fixed.
Special CP Special Cell SN Shrivastava is supervising the entire operation. The role of more players is suspected, a source says.
Sources said that a team led by DCP Sanjeev Yadav were camping in Mumbai to execute this covert operation. They were acting on a tip-off followed by call interception of players and bookies.
The police team had waited to get proper evidence against the players and let go of two opportunities earlier even though they had prima facie proof of spot-fixing.
Finally the arrests happened on late Wednesday night at hotel Trident in Mumbai.
The cops have recovered money and proof of transaction between players and bookies.
The accused will be brought to Delhi on a transit remand after being produced at a Mumbai court. They will be interrogated to get to the core of conspiracy.
Spot-fixing is different from match fixing as the whole match and the result is not fixed but parts of the match are fixed such as balls, sixes and fours at particular times. 
The franchise issued a statement saying that had been "taken by surprise" by the development.
A case has been registered at the Marine Drive police station in Mumbai under sections 420, which deals with cheating, and 120 (b), which deals with criminal conspiracy. The players are in the custody of Delhi police.
