New Delhi: Troubles never seem to end for Pakistan cricketer Shoaib Akhtar. A Pakistani newspaper The Nation has reported that a large number of syringes were found in cricketer Shoaib Akhtar’s bag at the Karachi airport while he was heading to India.
Shoaib reportedly argued that he is a diabetic and needs the syringes to inject himself with insulin.
However, when a senior official of the board was asked about the incident, he said it was no big deal as the syringes were empty and contained no substances.
Shafqat Naghmi, chief operating officer also showed ignorance over the medical history of Shoaib saying he would have to check up to find out if the fast bowler was a diabetic.
But he made it clear that Shoaib had gone to India to play in the IPL and currently he was under the preview of the IPL rules and regulations.
