ACC to have an anti-corruption unit

Rawalpindi, Nov 4: The Asian Cricket Council (ACC) is expected to appoint an anti-corruption unit for the continent which will investigate the charges of foul-play.

According to reliable sources, the discussion was though not in the four-point agenda for Nov 22 and 23 meeting at Sharjah, the top ACC officials were preparing a blue-print to deliberate on the subject and if accepted, get it enforced.

The investigator, according to sources, will be a former sleuth from any top government organization but is unlikely to be from the four Test playing nations. Besides the investigator, the ACC will also hire a former member of the judiciary to give legal cover to its probe and advice on further action.
