Asif waits for justice from CAS

Asif said he was a victim of the bias of the PCB and the ICC, which he claims "influenced" the hearings in his court case in London.

"My appeal will be heard in February and I am confident I will get a fair hearing and the justice which I didn't get from the International Cricket Council (ICC)," Asif told the reporters here.

Asif, who is serving a five-year ban from the ICC Anti-Corruption tribunal, made a quiet return on Eid day to attend the funeral of his mentor and coach Mohiuddin Chishti.

Asif, who spoke to the media after much persuasion, said he had not got a fair deal from the ICC since the spot-fixing scandal first broke out in September, 2010.

 

"They didn't ban Mervyn Westfield until the court reached its verdict. In my case, the ICC banned me even before the court proceedings had begun and I see this as bias," he said.

"Even when the trial was going on last year I felt the ICC was influencing the hearings and I am forced to say they are biased against me," he said. More
