Due To Delays In The Case Of Pakistan Trio Until 05 February

An anti-corruption court against cricketers of Pakistan Salman Butt, Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Aamer, which ended Tuesday made no decision on a new hearing is scheduled Feb. 5.

"The court has all been very aware of the importance of these three players in test cricket and the rest of the world," said Michael Beloff, a three-man independent commissioner for hearing.

"Representations have been made to set aside any decision on the charges before him again until he had enough time to give to the questions and scrutiny until he could, while giving its decision, written reasons.

"It would not be feasible within the period agreed for this audience in Doha.

"The court decided to continue its deliberations and to hold a new hearing in Doha on February 5 this year, where its decisions will be taken to damages and others will be discussed.

"Until then, the three players will remain suspended from all cricket activities."

The hearing was held behind closed doors in Qatar Financial Centre since January 6. But after six days of hearings the court can not make a decision.

The three independent hearing was chaired by the Code of Conduct Commissioner and senior lawyer Michael Beloff of England, aided by Justice Albie Sachs of South Africa and Kenya, Sharad Rao.

The trio hit the spot fixing charges in Pakistan during the tour to England last year, a scandal that has rocked the sport. It was alleged that they conspired and bowling balls is not deliberate - claim that they are all banned.

They were provisionally suspended by the International Criminal Court in September, the world governing body's code of conduct to ban at least five years if proven accusations of corruption.

The scandal emerged when Britain's News of the World claimed that seven Pakistani players, including the butt, and Aamer Asif, took money from a bookmaker Mazhar Majeed to obey orders at certain stages of testing the Lord in the month of August.

Scotland Yard detectives raided the hotel staff in London have confiscated a large amount of money from the room of the former captain of Pakistan to stop.
