The Board of Control for Cricket in India said on Monday that its players must inform security officials before making their way out of the team hotel.
The Chandigarh Police was unhappy with captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Harbhajan Singh and Yuvraj Singh leaving the team hotel without informing them. They said they would prepare a report on the security violation by the aforesaid players and send it to the BCCI.
"Player security is our utmost priority. Therefore, I think it is important for the players to inform the security officials before they plan to leave the team hotel," BCCI vice-president Rajiv Shukla said in Mohali.
Chandigarh's Superintendent of Police (Security) H S Doon said it was agreed beforehand that any player wanting to go out has to inform the officials three hours in advance and take a policeman along with him.
"First Yuvraj left, and when we told him to take a security official with him he outrightly refused. Then captain M S Dhoni and Harbhajan Singh also left their hotel without informing," added an unhappy Doon.
