LAHORE: Lahore High Court (LHC) on Tuesday said a petition seeking the seizure of assets of disgraced cricketers Salman Butt, Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Aamir was not admissible, Express News reported.
The trio was banned on February 5, 2011 by an anti-corruption tribunal of the International Cricket Council (ICC) for arranging no-balls to order during the Lord's Test against England in August 2010.
"All three players are young and by continuously punishing them, we will only hurt the national team," LHC said.
