LAHORE, Dec 3: Former Pakistan captain Wasim Akram has filed a petition in a civil court praying it to dismiss a case against him by a citizen.

The great left-arm fast bowler further stated that the petitioner gave him mental torture and also damaged his reputation.Civil Judge Mohammad Anwar Gondal fixed Dec 8 as the next date for hearing.
The petition was filed by Wasim’s lawyers, Fawad Hussain and Faiza Fayyaz.
