Cricket: Salman’s lawyer preps in Lahore

LAHORE: The British lawyer of Pakistan’s suspended former Test captain Salman Butt said he was in Lahore preparing for his client’s spot-fixing hearing next week.

“I am in Lahore and busy in preparing for the case,” said Patel. He is expected to meet the Pakistan Cricket Board officials, including the organisation’s legal adviser Taffazul Rizvi. Salman also faces the possibility of criminal proceedings by Britain’s Crown Prosecution Service (CPS). The CPS has received two reports from Scotland Yard and is to determine whether the case is strong enough to prosecute on charges of conspiracy to defraud book-makers in Britain.
