ISLAMABAD, Sept 2: The former girlfriend of Pakistan fast bowler Mohammad Asif met the International Cricket Council (ICC) officials investigating match-fixing after commenting on her suspicions of Asif's behaviour.

Actress Veena Malik's manager, Sohail Rashid, said on Thursday that she met ICC anti-corruption unit officials on Wednesday evening.

“She has shown whatever evidences she had to the anti-corruption unit officials,” Rashid stated. “I can't comment on this matter further than this.”

Malik had told Associated Press Television News that an Indian man frequently called and sent text messages to Asif, which Veena found suspicious.

Pakistan will not include the trio of suspected players — Salman Butt, Mohammad Aamir and Asif — in the two Twenty20 and five One-day internationals against England.—AP
