Former Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh appeared before the Enforcement Directorate on Tuesday for questioning in a money laundering case involving online betting app 1xBet. The 43-year-old, accompanied by his legal team, had his statement recorded under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act at the agency's central Delhi office. The ED has previously questioned cricketers Suresh Raina, Shikhar Dhawan, Robin Uthappa, and actors including Mimi Chakraborty and Ankush Hazra. Actor Sonu Sood faces summons Wednesday. The investigation targets 1xBet's alleged operations duping people of crores while evading taxes. The probe examines celebrity endorsement contracts, payment modes, and whether stars knew online betting was illegal in India. Asset attachment processes may follow.
