The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has summoned former Indian cricketer Shikhar Dhawan in connection with its ongoing investigation into an alleged illegal betting app-linked money laundering case. The development comes only days after the central agency grilled former cricketer Suresh Raina for nearly eight hours in the same matter.
According to sources, Shikhar Dhawan has been directed to appear before the agency’s Delhi headquarters on Thursday, September 4, for detailed questioning.
The case is linked to the betting platform 1xBet, which is already under the ED’s radar for alleged violations of multiple financial and cyber laws. Officials believe Dhawan’s association with the app came through endorsement deals, and his questioning will focus on this angle.
