Former Mumbai Indians player and West Indies all-rounder Fabian Allen faced a scary situation in Johannesburg as he was mugged while competing in the ongoing SA T20 League for his franchise Paarl Royals.
The franchise then released a statement, saying that WI player was safe and was provided all possible support after the incident.
Allen was robbed outside his team hotel at gunpoint on January 25. Paarl Royals said he would be in action during the team’s Eliminator against Joburg Super Kings on Wednesday.
“…Paarl Royals would like to state that the West Indian all-rounder is safe, and enjoying his time at the SA20 as he, along with his teammates and support staff, prepares for the all-important Eliminator on Wednesday,” the franchise said in a statement on Tuesday.
“The franchise works closely with the league to ensure the safety and well-being of its players and staff, while also allowing them to have free personal time as well.
