David Le Cluse, Chair of Soccer Club in Cricket Scandal, Found Dead

croydon athleticDavid Le Cluse, whose Croydon Athletic team is tied to Pakistan's cricket-fixing scandal, was found dead Saturday. The 44-year-old Le Cluse was found in a garage near his home with a gunshot wound to the head.

"The circumstances of his death are being treated as unexplained. Inquiries are ongoing," said a statement from Metropolitan Police. The death is being reported as an apparent suicide.

Le Cluse was appointed chairman of Croydon last November by club owner Mazhar Majeed, who was arrested in August on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud bookmakers following allegations that members of the Pakistan cricket team were involved in match fixing during their recent tour of England.
