LHC issues notices in appeal against PCB's tribunal

A division bench of the Lahore High Court on Thursday denying stay against proceedings before an anti-corruption tribunal of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) against cricketer Khalid Latif on spot fixing charges, sought replies from the ministry of sports and the board by June 13. Representing the cricket player, advocate Zubair Khalid argued that the PCB's anti-corruption tribunal had no jurisdiction to investigate the spot-fixing charges.
He said the tribunal constituted under the PCB anti-corruption code was illegal as its rules had not been notified in Pakistan gazette. The lawyer asked the bench to set aside decision of the singe bench and stayed the proceedings against him pending before the anti-corruption tribunal of the PCB.
