NAB takes final decision on corruption charges levelled against PCB Chairman Najam Sethi

LAHORE: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has given clean chit over corruption charges against Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Najam Sethi, declaring them as NFA (Not Fit for Action).

The verdict by NAB Lahore in a letter dated May 14 states that the complaint against Sethi has been dismissed as ‘NFA’ which means that the investigations have revealed nothing untoward and that the allegations have been found to be totally unsubstantiated.

The allegations against Sethi were levelled by former Test fast bowler Sarfraz Nawaz who made malicious attempts of defaming the PCB chief and tarnishing his reputation through a series of venomous interviews and articles that appeared in the media over the past few years.

The PCB has already initiated legal proceedings against Sarfraz and he has been barred from making any comments against the PCB chairman.
