National Test cricketers Imam-ul-Haq and Mohammad Rizwan appeared before the NCCIA Lahore and sought time to submit written responses.
After WikiLeaks and the Panama Papers, a new 'Dressing Room Leaks' case has come to light. National Test cricketers Imam-ul-Haq and Mohammad Rizwan appeared before the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) in Lahore and requested additional time to provide written replies.
According to media reports, both cricketers were summoned by the NCCIA. They appeared along with another player who also received an NCCIA notice. The agency is investigating information obtained from the players' mobile phones after the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) took custody of their devices.
Earlier, the NCCIA had issued notices to and summoned three national cricketers—Imam-ul-Haq, Mohammad Rizwan, and another player—to investigate the content found on their phones. The PCB has not disclosed any reasons for taking possession of the players' personal devices.
It's worth noting that this development comes after Pakistan suffered heavy defeats in the first two Test matches against England. As a result, the PCB took drastic action, removing seven players and coaches from the team following the Lord’s Test. The separated players include Mohammad Rizwan, Imam-ul-Haq, Salman Ali Agha, Ali Usman, Aamer Jamal, Owais Zafar, and Khurram Shahzad. Head coach Sarfaraz Ahmed and bowling coach Umar Gul were also released.
