IPL Jerseys Worth ₹6.52 Lakh Stolen from Wankhede Stadium
In a shocking incident at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium,
261 IPL jerseys valued at ₹6.52 lakh were stolen from the BCCI's official
merchandise store. The accused, Farooque Aslam Khan, a 43-year-old security
manager, was arrested after an internal audit revealed discrepancies. CCTV
footage showed Khan removing a carton of jerseys on June 13, 2025. He sold the
jerseys to a dealer in Haryana, claiming they were part of a clearance sale.
Khan used the proceeds to fund his online gambling addiction, but he reportedly
lost all the money. So far, 50 jerseys have been recovered, and the
investigation is ongoing.
