Cricket Canada CEO Salman Khan is in hot water with corruption allegations. Word is, he’s being charged with theft and fraud from his time as president of the Calgary and District Cricket League (2014-2016). Calgary Police say they think two guys stole around $200,000 from the league.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The cops say payments were made to businesses for supposed repairs and upgrades to the league’s stuff. But either the work wasn’t done, or it was done cheap with overpriced materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The police statement says that they found that between January 2014 and December 2016, the ex-treasurer and ex-president of the C <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cricket Canada is reacting to the claims and will ask lawyers and governance people what to do next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’re treating this seriously and checking it out, the statement reads.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We’re getting all the info now and will talk to legal and governance experts to decide what to do, it continued<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Salman, who got the CEO job this January, denied the charges on the Alberta Cricket Association’s social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here’s what really happened. Someone filed a police complaint against me over seven years ago, he posted. A police guy contacted me and wanted to hear my side and see my evidence. He said if I didn’t give my side, he’d file charges. I said I’d visit after Ramadan, but he didn’t want to wait and decided to file charges without hearing me out.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I want to be clear: They can’t prove anything against me. I’m not worried.
