According to the complaint lodged, on August 31, a message was sent to Kashi Rudraj’s manager Arjun Chauhan from ‘@vipss_nakrani’ user ID on Instagram. The person sending the message described himself as a large -scale bookie and offered Arjun an amount of Rs 1 crore to fix the match. Along with this, he also said to give 50 lakh rupees separately.
