ISLAMABAD, Aug 12: The senator who had demanded that Ramiz Raja's name be put on the Exit Control List, has submitted a privilege motion with the senate secretariat claiming the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) was intimidating him.
In the motion, senator Muhammad Enver Baig has claimed that the PCB through a news item that appeared in newspapers on Thursday has attempted to threaten him with the specific purpose of dissuading him from performing Parliamentary duties.
"I have confronted the officials of the PCB with facts and evidence in meetings of the Senate Standing Committee on Sports, as these were public hearings and the proceedings have been reported in the national press," he says.
Baig said that the PCB by insinuating libel in the said news item was trying to exert pressure and intimidate him from performing his duties as a Parliamentarian in the future meetings of the committee.
"This action of the PCB has infringed on my privilege as a member of the Senate to expose the irregularities in the functioning of the Board. Therefore this matter may be referred to the Standing Committee on Rules and Privileges."
