Pakistan Cricket Board bans tainted Latif for five years
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has imposed a five-year ban and a fine of one million rupees on batsman Khalid Latif for his involvement in spot-fixing during the Pakistan Super League (PSL).
Karachi: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has imposed a five-year ban and a fine of one million rupees on batsman Khalid Latif for his involvement in spot-fixing during the Pakistan Super League (PSL).
In a short order released today, the three-member tribunal of PCB headed by a former High Court judge Asghar Haider found Khalid guilty on all six breaches of the Cricket Board’s anti-corruption code.
It said all the penalties imposed on Khalid will run concurrently with the maximum being five years and a fine of one million rupees to be recovered by the PCB.
Khalid’s lawyer Badr Alam, however, outrightly rejected the verdict and said the tribunal was not authorised to take such a decision.
“We don’t accept this decision and we have already filed a challenge in the Supreme Court against the tribunal,” he said.
The same tribunal had last month imposed a five-year ban on another Pakistani batsman Sharjeel Khan for similar offences in the PSL, played in February in Dubai. Khalid and his lawyer were involved in a continuous run- in with the tribunal since the start of the hearings in April.
