Sir Paul Condon in Delhi

International Cricket Council anti-corruption chief Sir Paul Condon arrived in Delhi on Friday to probe allegations of former England cricket captain Alec Stewart's role in the match-fixing scandal.

The former London Metropolitan Police Commissioner was among a team of British detectives who flew in to investigate charges that Stewart was paid 5,000 pounds to provide match information to an Indian bookmaker.

Board of Control for Cricket in India president A C Muthiah said the British detective is already in touch with Indian board officials including BCCI commissioner K Madhavan, who has been entrusted the task of conducting an internal inquiry following the CBI findings.

Muthiah informed that investigating officers of all the cricket-playing countries will meet in London in December "to study how to uniformly approach and curb such problems [match-fixing]."
