RCB’s Dayal Booked: Sexual Exploitation Allegations Rock IPL
An FIR has been filed against Royal Challengers Bangalore cricketer Yash Dayal, accusing him of sexual exploitation. The complaint, lodged under Section 69 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), alleges sexual intercourse by deceit, based on a false promise of marriage.
The aggrieved woman reportedly approached Uttar Pradesh’s Chief Minister through the Integrated Grievance Redressal System (IGRS) to register her complaint. This led to the subsequent filing of the First Information Report.
The incident, reported on July 8, 2025, has sent shockwaves through the cricketing world and raises serious questions about accountability within the high-profile Indian Premier League (IPL). The ongoing investigation will undoubtedly cast a shadow over Dayal’s career and the image of the RCB franchise. The case highlights the urgent need for stricter measures to protect women from exploitation and ensure justice for victims within the sporting arena.
