International Cricket Council's
anti-corruption chief Sir Paul Condon has sought a meeting
with former Pakistan skippers Salim Malik and Asif Iqbal in
connection with the match-fixing scandal.
Condon's request will, however, be scanned by Pakistan
Cricket Board in their emergency meeting after taking legal
opinion from the board's lawyer.
The PCB has meanwhile informed Condon that they have no jurisdiction over Asif Iqbal and that he would have to examine Iqbal, who now lives in the United Arab Emirates, on his own initiative. Condon had requested Pakistan Cricket Board to arrange the meetings when he telephoned a PCB official from New Delhi on Wednesday, the news reported today.
Condon and his team of investigators were in India to meet the Central Bureau of Investigation and Indian cricket board officials to get information about non-Indian players mentioned in the CBI report on match-fixing, which has already led to life ban on Mohammed Azharuddin and Ajay Sharma and a five-year ban on Ajay Jadeja and Manoj Prabhakar. The names of Malik and Asif Iqbal figure in the report besides that of Alec Stewart, Martin Crowe, Dean Jones, Brian Lara, Mark Waugh, and others.
