PCB tribunal approves Latif’s request to adjourn proceedings till June 14

LAHORE: Pakistan Cricket Board Anti-Corruption Tribunal on Tuesday approved the request of Khalid Latif, suspended over spot-fixing charges, to adjourn the proceedings till June 14.

Latif had emailed the tribunal requesting that they be allowed to advance their defence from June 14.

According to a PCB statement, the Anti-Corruption Tribunal at the NCA Lahore held detailed deliberations regarding the request and allow his counsel to make final arguments.

The statement said that the tribunal carefully deliberated on the matter and has granted the request of the cricketer.

Earlier in May, Khalid Latif boycotted the Pakistan Cricket Board’s (PCB) anti-corruption tribunal.

The cricketer refused to appear before the PCB’s anti-corruption tribunal following a tiff with the PCB’s legal counsel.

Badar Alam-Khalid’s lawyer said that he has reservations against tribunal’s head Justice (retd) Asghar Haider.
