AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

Former IPL commissioner Lalit Modi has broken his silence regarding past allegations involving threats from underworld figures Dawood Ibrahim and Chhota Shakeel. Modi, who has been living in London since 2010, denied being a fugitive and stated that there are no pending legal cases against him.

Modi revisited claims that he faced threats after refusing to tolerate fixing during his tenure as IPL commissioner. He alleged that his son was kidnapped and his life was targeted in connection with his stance against corruption in the league. The allegations link the threats to his refusal to allow fixing activities during his time leading the IPL.
