Srinagar: Jammu & Kashmir Cricket Association (JKCA) has cautioned the young players and budding cricketers not to fall prey to a “conman” named Rahul Tiwari. 

“It has been reported to the JKCA by a young cricketer from Kolkata that one person named Rahul Tiwari is carrying a Selector’s Identity Card issued by JKCA and is collecting money from young players with the assurance that he will get them selected in the JKCA U-19/U-23 teams,” said Brig. Anil Gupta (Retd.), Member Administration, JKCA.

“On further inquiry, it came to my notice that the Identity Card is fake and carries the signature of Ex-CEO of JKCA and a BCCI Official. JKCA does not issue such Identity Cards to the Selectors,” he said.

He further said: “JKCA has filed a complaint at Ram Munshi Bagh Police Station Srinagar and Cyber Crime Branch, Srinagar since the conman Rahul Tiwari had also got a forged Player Registration Form in the name of Cricket Association Srinagar. Also, the address shown on his ID card is Moti Bagh, Srinagar whereas no such locality exists in Srinagar.”

“JKCA once again advises the young and budding cricketers not to fall prey to such conmen and assured them that the system of selections in JKCA is totally transparent and JKCA has not deputed anybody to select/recommend players from outside the Union Territories of Jammu & Kashmir,” he added.
