Pakistan's disgraced former captain Salman Butt returned home Friday after being released from a British prison, maintaining his innocence over a spot-fixing scandal but apologising for the first time for not reporting corrupt approaches. The 27-year-old was imprisoned for 30 months in November on charges of accepting corrupt payments during the Lord's Test against England in August 2010.
Salman, team-mates Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Aamer, and agent Mazhar Majeed were accused of arranging deliberate no-balls in return for money. Aamer was released in February after serving half his six-month sentence while Asif, jailed for 12 months, was freed in May. "To the people of Pakistan, all the cricketers, those who support us and make us stars, I apologise," he said. However, Salman denied he had any links to spot-fixing.
