Mohammad Rizwan Challenges NCCIA Summons In Lahore HC, Questions Agency's Jurisdiction Over Pakistan Cricket Investigation

Lahore: Mohammad Rizwan, a prominent Pakistani cricketer, has challenged a summons from the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) in the Lahore High Court. The summons were issued to Rizwan and fellow Pakistani batter Imam-ul-Haq following Pakistan's 3-0 Test series loss to England in June. Rizwan appeared before the agency but has raised questions about the nature of the investigation and the agency's jurisdiction over the matter.

According to the Lahore High Court, Rizwan's petition challenges the absence of a specific allegation against him and questions the agency's authority to summon him for questioning. The NCCIA questionnaire reportedly sought information about the players' travel, financial history, personal, and career details. The NCCIA's inquiry may or may not be linked to the disciplinary investigation conducted by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) following the series defeat.
