  • Comments Off on Khalid Latif files intra-court appeal
Cricketer Khalid Latif has approached the Lahore High Court challenging dismissal of his petition by a single bench against the proceedings of Pakistan Cricket Board's (PCB) Anti-Corruption Tribunal on spot-fixing charges against him. A division bench headed by Justice Shahid Karim would take up the appeal on Thursday (today).

Latif pleaded through his counsel, Zubair Khalid, that the PCB's anti-corruption tribunal had no jurisdiction to investigate the spot-fixing charges. He said the tribunal constituted under the PCB anti-corruption code had not been gazetted in the Pakistan gazette. He also assailed powers of the PCB chairman to constitute the tribunal. He said a single bench dismissed the petition on the matter ignoring facts of the case. The petitioner therefore prayed the court to set aside decision of the singe bench and the proceedings against him before the anti-corruption tribunal of the PCB.
