Aamir Sohail serves legal notice to Sethi-led PCB management committee

Former Pakistani cricketer, Aamer Sohail, has taken legal action against the management committee of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), which is currently headed by Najam Sethi.

Sohail has sent a formal notice to the chief election commissioner and the Ministry of Inter-Provincial Coordination (IPC), urging them to intervene and prevent Sethi from convening meetings and exercising other powers within the PCB.

The legal notice highlights that Sethi's tenure as the head of the management committee officially concluded on June 19, thereby rendering them incapable of carrying out any functions or wielding authority within the PCB.

This legal notice was prompted by the fact that the Sethi-led management committee called for an urgent meeting today, despite their supposed lack of legitimate powers.

Earlier on Tuesday morning, Sethi, announced his withdrawal from the race to become the chairman of the PCB.

Sethi conveyed this decision through a tweet, expressing his desire to avoid becoming a source of conflict between former Pakistan President, Asif Zardari, and Shehbaz Sharif. He emphasized that the instability and uncertainty caused by such conflicts would not be beneficial for the PCB.
