Former Sri Lanka: Former Sri Lanka cricketer Sachithra Senanayake was arrested on Wednesday over match-fixing charges after he appeared before the Special Investigation Unit (SIU) of the Sports Ministry. He will be produced before a court later in the day.
Last month, the Colombo Magistrate issued an order banning the 38-year-old from traveling abroad for three months.
This was on a direction by the Attorney General’s (AG) to SIU to frame criminal charges against the former cricketer.
