Raina breaks silence, opens up on death of his uncle

Days after pulling out of the Indian Premier League, former Indian cricketer Suresh Raina finally broke his silence. Raina took to Twitter and shared the details of the crime that claimed the lives of his uncle and cousin in Punjab. Earlier, it was reported that a gang of robbers killed his relative Ashok Kumar, while four members of his family sustained injuries.

Comments
My uncle was slaughtered to death: Raina

Raina shared the incident through a series of tweets. "What happened to my family in Punjab was beyond horrible. My uncle was slaughtered to death, my bua & both my cousins had severe injuries. Unfortunately, my cousin also passed away last night after battling for life for days. My bua is still very very critical & is on life support." wrote Raina.

Quote
'The criminals shouldn't be spared'

"We don't know what exactly had happened that night & who did this. I request @PunjabPoliceInd to look into this matter. We deserve to know who did this heinous act to them. Those criminals should not be spared to commit more crimes," he added.

The news of Raina missing the impending IPL edition has given rise to a number of speculations. However, the Chennai Super Kings informed about the development on Twitter, stating the 33-year-old has opted out due to personal reasons. The announcement had come a day after several members of the CSK contingent were tested positive for COVID-19. Last month, he announced retirement from international cricket.
