Tainted Pakistan batsman Khalid Latif, who's been banned for five-years by an Anti-Corruption Tribunal of the PCB for fixing has claimed to be receiving death threats. "Khalid during third week of June got a call from a private number on his cell phone and the unknown caller told him clearly that if he tried to create a nuisance or resist in the spot-fixing case, he would be buried between the graves of his parents in Karachi," his lawyer, Badr Alam claimed on Geo Super channel.
Alam, who is representing Latif in the PSL spot-fixing case since February, claimed that his client had informed him about the death threat at that time and also about some other messages and requested him (Alam) to keep silent while the spot-fixing hearing was going on before the tribunal.
"That's why I didn't say anything but now that Khalid has been banned and fined for something he didn't do, I have written to the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) drawing their attention to the matter as security is needed for my client and his family," Alam claimed.
