After criticising Sri Lanka's Muttiah Muralitharan as a 'chucker', India's former left-arm spinner Bishan Singh Bedi has trained his gun at compatriot Harbhajan Singh, saying "he is no different."
Bedi also lashed out at the International Cricket Council for "turning a blind eye to this (chucking) monstrous problem."
"He (Harbhajan) is not any different. The ICC is turning a blind eye to both of them. They are blind to this monstrous problem and it is unfair and undesirable," Bedi said.
"It is not something to be ignored. A lot of people have questioned Harbhajan's action and they are right too. He has the same problem as Murali," the former Indian captain and coach was quoted as saying by 'The Sunday Age' on Sunday.
Bedi, who was a part of the famous Indian spin quartet, described chucking as a bigger menace than match-fixing.
"This is cricket's greatest tragedy. Match-fixing was disgraceful but no one knew about it, so nothing could be done. Throwing is being allowed to happen in front of 30,000 and 40,000 people," said Bedi, who took 266 wickets in 67 Tests.
"Chucking is a bigger disgrace than match-fixing because it is done out in the open. It is the scourge of cricket and must be stopped," Bedi said.
"Harbhajan is also surviving on the 15-degree allowance. These bowlers are having a ball.
"And young bowlers on the subcontinent are coming through and they are copying the actions of Harbhajan and Muralitharan. These boys will be Test cricketers one day and the ICC is going to have a hell of a problem."
Muralitharan and Harbhajan have come under scrutiny before the 15-degree threshold was introduced in 2005.
Until then, spinners were permitted to straighten their arms by only five degrees, medium pacers 7.5 degrees and fast bowlers 10 degrees.
