A district and sessions judge on Tuesday ordered the Islampura station house officer to register a criminal case against Pakistani cricketers, Muhammad Amir, Salman Butt and Muhammad Asif for their involvement in spot fixing. The court issued orders on an application filed by Zubair Balqan submitting that Amir, Butt and Asif had been found guilty in the spot fixing case and had earned a bad name for Pakistan, adding that being the national heroes their act was intolerable.
“They are liable to punishment thus the court may direst the Islampura SHO to register a criminal case against cricket stars.” After initial hearing, the court ordered the SHO to register a case against the three under charges of spot fixing and fraud and to submit a copy of the FIR in court.
