PCB appoints ex-SC judge to its integrity committee
December 14th, 2010 - 3:23 pm ICT by ANIKarachi, Dec. 14 (ANI): A retired Supreme Court judge, Jamshed Ali Shah, has been included in a Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) integrity committee to ensure a transparent selection process.
A PCB official confirmed Monday that Justice Shah had been inducted on the committee after discussions with the International Cricket Council (ICC).
“The PCB and the ICC task force on Pakistan jointly felt that we should have a former judge who is an independent figure on the committee which will continue to be headed by board chairman Ijaz Butt,” the Daily Times quoted the official, as saying.
The official said the purpose of inducting the former judge on the integrity committee was to give it some independence and also to have legal help available as the committee would be dealing with issues of discipline and other related matters.
The PCB had constituted its integrity committee last month after the ICC gave the PCB a deadline of 30-days to reform its administration and also seriously enforce anti-corruption and disciplinary measures in Pakistan cricket.
It also includes chief selector Mohsin Khan, senior board official Zakir Khan, and head of the domestic operations Sultan Rana. (ANI)
