Latif skips PSB meeting

Published April 14, 2002

ISLAMABAD, April 13: Latif Butt, Secretary of the Pakistan Olympic Association, did not turn up for a scheduled meeting with the officials of the Pakistan Sports Board Saturday.

The meeting that was to discuss the size of the Pakistan contingent for the forthcoming Commonwealth Games in Manchester had to be postponed because Butt was reportedly attending to a delegation from Pusan (South Korea) in Lahore. Pusan is due to stage the Asian Games this fall.

PSB sources said that a new date for the meeting had not been fixed yet.
