Former judge Justice Qayyum, who reported on match-fixing allegations in Pakistani cricket in 1990s, says the current scandal had broken out because his recommendations were not put into practice.
The government had ordered inquiry after Australian cricketers Shane Warne, Tim May and Mark Waugh accused then Pakistan captain Salim Malik of offering them bribes to underperform during Australia’s 1994 tour of Pakistan.
The inquiry recommended bans on Malik and paceman Ata-ur-Rehman and fined six other players ––Waqar Younis, Wasim Akram, Inzamam-ul-Haq, Saeed Anwar, Mushtaq Ahmed and Akram Raza.
