New Delhi, Mar 26: Former BCCI president Jagmohan Dalmiya, facing charges of misappropriation of funds, was arrested on Wednesday after the Mumbai Crime Branch filed a chargesheet against him in a local court.

However, the former BCCI chief was immediately granted bail and will be produced at the Quila court where a formal chargesheet will be filed against him.

Dalmiya was released on bail of Rs 25,000, his lawyer Satish Manashinde said.

The Crime Branch has accused Dalmiya of misappropriation of funds to the tune of Rs 2.9 crore. It is acting on a case filed by the BCCI in March 2006.

The Economic Offences Wing of the Crime Branch found that Dalmiya diverted funds meant for legal fees to other expenses including payment of personal phone bills.

    Dalmiya did have a great time at the cost of Indian cricket. No doubts he took the game to a certain height, but the hidden agenda will not be in the light of the actual fortunes he has made from the game during his tenure as the Hitler of Indian Cricket. So many of our young boys their dreams shattered due to the policy run by Dalmiya.

    Sharad Pawar and his team have done wonders for the game and the young boys of Indian cricket, the young have seen their dreams come true and in a year compared to the debacle from the World Cup, we are at a diffrent level of cricket, thanks to BCCI. Finally if Dalmiya has to go to jail no regrets let the law of the land be SUPREME. Kevin Dias - Mumbai.
