Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Member of the National Assembly (MNA) Khawaja Asif said on Thursday that cricketer Salman Butt’s confession during the hearing of the match fixing case before the British Queen Jury that he was in touch with Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan while bargaining the gambling amount with bookie Mazhar Majeed, has ashamed the whole nation.
During the hearing, when Salman was asked that whom was he talking to on the telephone while standing with cricketer Wahab Riaz, who was wearing a jacket given by Majeed, which carried thousands of pounds, he replied that he was consulting with Imran. Asif demanded that after admitting that he helped his former brother-in-law in gambling and Salman’s confession, a complete investigation should be conducted against Imran for promoting gambling in Pakistani cricket and given punishment according to law so that this menace could be eliminated from Pakistani cricket forever.
