Hyderabad: Justice M S Ramchandra Rao of Telangana High Court on Tuesday upheld the appointment of Justice Deepak Verma, retired Supreme Court Judge, as Ethics Officer cum Ombudsman to the Hyderabad Cricket Association.
The judge was dealing with a revision petition filed with leave by Charminar Cricket Club questioning an order of the civil court. Earlier one of the cricket clubs affiliated to the HCA Budding Star Cricket Club moved the civil court contending the resolution of the Apex council appointing Justice Deepak Verma was without the authority of law. It was further contended that such an action could only be left to the General Body.
The civil court had suspended the appointment of Justice Verma. In the High Court it was contended that the petitioner was in collusion with HCA Secretary Vijay Anand and was lacking in bona fides. Justice Ramachandra Rao allowed the revision, imposed costs and upheld the order of appointment . He also dismissed the original petition filed in the city civil court as being one born in malafides.
