    This guy definitely will join politics and will be successful in amassing wealth from unlawful sources. Shame on you jothikumaran. These kind of people are black spot for any sport. But knowing the fact that how the law will take its own course I don't surprise if this thug comes out "Clean"

    There is a proverb in hindi saying "ULTA CHOR KOTWAL KO DANTEIN". Likewise Mr Jothikumaran doing. The news channel who carried out this sting operation was Nations Best news channel and in my opinion they will simply show this type of stunning sting operation. Still so much guts Mr Jothilumaran has to file the case aginst them. What will happen to India? and its sports??
