Despite national chief selector Moin Khan apologising for his casino visit, a court in Gujranwala issued a notice to him along with Pakistan Cricket Board chief Shahryar Khan and Najam Sethi, Express News reported Thursday.

Moin had received severe criticism for visiting a casino right before Pakistan's match against West Indies although he claimed he had gone to Christchurch's casino with his wife for dinner.

oBSERVER | 9 years ago | Reply Looks as if our courts have plenty of time to waste on such cases. There has to be something in it for all of them!
Arsalan | 9 years ago | Reply The big question is whether he went there for dinner only or involved in gambling/drinking too. If PCB had investigated it by getting CCTV footages and questioning casino waiters, we would have got a definite answer. PCB has only relied on Moin Khan's statement.
