Malik receives questionnaire
Karachi, May 25: Pakistan’s tainted former captain Salim Malik has received a letter from PCB’s AntiCorruption Unit, asking him to respond to a set of questions which include those pertaining to his meetings with some people in London in 2011.
Malik, who was banned for life in 2000 by a judicial commission for match-fixing but was cleared by a sessions court in 2008, had launched a campaign to force the Pakistan Cricket Board to give him clearance to get back to cricket activities.
The 57-year-old said he will be replying to the questions with all honesty as he bids to return to cricket again.
“I have sent the questionnaire to my lawyers and I am going to answer to each and each every question honestly. I have had enough of keeping quiet. I will now write down the truth,” he said.
Malik said the questions pertained to his career as a Pakistan captain, players and events leading to his ban and thereafter.
Malik said he was made a scapegoat in 2000 and now he was fed up with the situation.He also said he was keen to get clearance as his son was a very talented player and he didn't want him to suffer because of him. —
