Azhar case hearing adjourned again

A Hyderabad court on Wednesday adjourned to next week the hearing on the main petition of former India captain Mohammad Azharuddin, challenging the life ban imposed on him by the Board of Control for Cricket in India.

The second additional chief judge of the city civil court J Shyam Sunder Rao posted the hearing for September 20 as the interim stay granted on July 18 by the high court, on further proceedings of the case following a revision petition filed by BCCI in the high court, was yet to be disposed of.

Justice Sudarshan Reddy of the AP high court granted interim stay on further proceedings of the main petition filed by Azharuddin after the lower court rejected the BCCI's plea for more time to file a written statement on the match-fixing scandal.

The BCCI also filed an interlocutary petition in the lower court seeking striking down of certain averments in Azhar's main petition and sought more time to file the written statement. But the lower court insisted that the statement be filed by July 19.

Aggrieved by it, the BCCI filed a revision petition in the high court but the hearing over it is yet to take place.
