Indian Corruption Investigation

Peters & Peters act for a high-profile and wealthy Indian national, who is founder of a highly lucrative and publicised sports league.  The commercial success of the league (reportedly worth over US$4 billion) has led our client to be compared to Don King and Bernie Ecclestone. Our client faces disciplinary, civil and criminal investigations in India following a tender process for the franchise rights for new sports teams and for billion-dollar broadcasting deals. The allegations in question involve significant figures in Indian political life and a vast array of high profile global sporting events and personalities.  Possible criminal allegations include false accounting, money laundering, bid-rigging and corruption.  Peters & Peters advise on the individual’s position in the UK, including any future request for extradition from the Indian authorities.
