Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Rajasthan Royals will file a police complaint against its tainted players who were caught in the spot-fixing scandal, announced Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president N. Srinivasan here Sunday.

The BCCI convened an emergency working committee meeting to discuss the controversy involving S. Sreesanth, Ankeet Chavan and Ajit Chandila, who were arrested in Mumbai late Wednesday night by the Delhi Police for their alleged involvement in spot-fixing.

"We also invited the Rajasthan Royals management (to the meeting). We were informed by the management that they intend to file a police complaint against the players," Srinivasan said.

Srinivasan said the players will be given the severest of punishment, if found guilty.
