Defamation case against Bedi adjourned to August 11
28 April 2001

Hearing in a defamation case against former India captain Bishen Singh Bedi was today adjourned to August 11 by a Patiala court.

Bedi appeared personally in the court of judicial magistrate MDS Bedi who accept the plea of the left-arm spinner's counsel HPS Verma for time to commence the arguments.

Bedi had got bail at the last hearing. Earlier non-bailable warrants had been issued against him as he had failed to appear despite repeated summons. None of the witnesses, including coach D P Azad and cricketer Navjot Sidhu, have appeared so far.

The defamation case has been filed against Bedi and a Jalandhar - based newspaper by former national selector and Punjab Cricket Association (PCA) Secretary M P Pandove after an article of the former India captain appeared in the daily. Pandove has in his petition stated that the article had harmed his as also PCA's reputation.
