Chris Gayle to take legal action against Australian tabloid's false allegations

By

Melbourne Renegades player, Chris Gayle, is taking legal action against an Australian tabloid who issued a false story.

Last year, in Sydney, the 36-year-old was accused of performing inappropriate gestures in a dressing room which involved a woman. The Australian media organization straight away issued a report which included certain allegations which Gayle strongly denies.

According to a report from Yahoo, the former West Indies Captain is taking legal actions against Australian newspaper, 'Fairfax Media' after they falsely claimed Chris Gayle was involved in a dressing room incident which included him indecently exposing himself to a woman during last year's World Cup in Sydney.

Gayle's management recently issued a statement regarding the incident and confirmed that their client will be taking any legal actions necessary after 'strongly denying' the accusations. Another report from Fox Sports explains how the former Captains management also added that legal procedures for demotion have already begun.

In other news, last Monday, Gayle, who currently plays for Melbourne's Renegades in Australia Big Bash League Twenty20 competition, was fined 10,000 Australian Dollars after making an 'inappropriate' comment to a female reported on live TV.

South China Morning Post also reported on the said issues and explained how Gayle was talking to a female reported last Monday, January 4th, during a game which was being aired live, when he made the comment that he and the reporter should go out for drinks after the match, before adding "don't blush, baby." Due to his remark which sparked controversy with some of the public and media, the 36-year-old was fined and paid $7,500 US dollars.

Despite the recent mishap, Chris Gayle stands by his statement and continues to deny all allegations regarding the Sydney dressing room issue last year. It's not yet known exactly what action will be taken, however, Chris and his management believe they have enough strong evidence to win the case.
