Punjab Kings batter Shashank Singh has lodged a police complaint alleging his cook demanded Rs 7 lakh in an extortion attempt.
Punjab Kings batter Shashank Singh has filed a police complaint after his cook allegedly demanded Rs 7 lakh. The demand was framed as extortion, and Singh reported it to police.
It's the second security incident involving an IPL player in recent weeks. Singh remains a regular in Punjab's middle order and is continuing with the league while the complaint is under investigation.

This isn't just a personal problem — it's a structural one. Mid-tier IPL earners like Singh suddenly have six-figure sums in play but no security apparatus like senior internationals do. They're targets precisely because they're visible but unshielded.
