t was raining money in the two-day, jam-packed IPL 2022 mega auction, with the 10 franchises splurging close to Rs 550 crore on 204 players to assemble their respective squads during the huge event which took place in Bengaluru on 12th and 13th February.

However, things got pretty tense when the regular auctioneer Hugh Edmeads fell on the floor during the event on the first day due to Postural Hypotension. But, Charu Sharma, who is a known name in the cricket fraternity, came to BCCI’s rescue and assumed Hugh’s responsibilities after being called at very short notice.

Notably, stand-in auctioneer Charu did a brilliant job in handling all the proceedings  but one as he mistakenly sold the left-arm pacer, Khaleel Ahmed, to Delhi Capitals instead of Mumbai Indians who had the highest bid for the cricketer on Day 2 of the auction.

During the bidding war, MI were first to initiate a ?5.25-crore bid for the pacer, following which DC co-owner Kiran Kumar Grandhi raised paddle for ?5.5 crore but immediately backed out. However, Charu was in a state of confusion and then made a blunder as he stated that Delhi Capitals have bid 5.25 crores for the Khaleel despite MI already having bid the same amount for the former SRH pacer, whose base price was Rs 50 lakh.

Eventually, MI were robbed of Khaleel Ahmed despite having the highest bid of 5.25 crore and DC got the player for Rs 5.25 crore despite bidding only Rs 5 crore.

Here’s the video of the incident:

Meanwhile, MI made Ishan Kishan the costliest player at the auction by bagging him for Rs 15.25 crore. Overall they spent Rs 89.90 crore from the allowed purse of Rs 90 crore to retain four players and buy 21 players at the auction.

On the other hand, DC’s costliest buy was Shardul Thakur, whose contract is worth Rs 10.75 crore. Delhi also spent Rs 89.90 crore and retained four players and bought 20 players at the auction.

Mumbai Indians squad for IPL 2022: Rohit Sharma (c), Jasprit Bumrah, Kieron Pollard, Suryakumar Yadav, Ishan Kishan, Dewald Brevis, Basil Thampi, Murugan Ashwin, Jaydev Unadkat, Mayank Markande, N Tilak Varma, Sanjay Yadav, Jofra Archer, Daniel Sams, Tymal Mills, Tim David, Riley Meredith, Mohd Arshad Khan, Anmolpreet Singh, Ramandeep Singh, Rahul Buddhi, Hrithik Shokeen, Arjun Tendulkar, Aryan Juyal, Fabian Allen.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
