Sami in trouble

Karachi: Yet another Pakistan cricketer is in news for wrong reason as an FIR has been filed against paceman Mohammed Sami for rash driving, causing damage.

It was reported, on Wednesday, that fast bowler Umar Gul’s house was raided by Army on the suspicion of harbouring a militant and his brother was arrested.

Both Gul and Sami are away in Sri Lanka with the national team.

The Gulberg police station on Wednesday registered an FIR on the complaint of lawyer Farrukh Illyas Cheema, who claimed that his car was badly damaged by Sami in a accident.

He said the cricketer had promised to take care of the damages but despite several reminders, he reneged his promise and thus committed fraud. Cheema said that on May 26, Sami and his friend had banged their car into his car due to reckless driving.       (PTI)
