Dawn ICA secretary appeals against life ban
8 November 1999

Islamabad, Nov 7: Jawadul Hassan, former secretary Islamabad Cricket Association (ICA), has filed an appeal to Pakistan Cricket Board ad hoc Committee against "arbitrary" action of ICA ad hoc Committee that slapped a "life ban" on him eleven days ago on disciplinary grounds.

Apart from slapping a ban on him, the ICA ad hoc committee has also refrained all affiliated clubs of ICA to disassociate themselves from the former secretary.

The ad hoc committee has also written to Brig Shami, head of the Rawalpindi/Islamabad Scrutiny Committee, not to allow Jawad to enter his name in the club. The action was reportedly endorsed by the PCB ad hoc committee.

The life ban was announced in response to the press release issued by the former secretary demanding ouster of the ICA ad hoc committee which he alleged was damaging cricket in the capital.

In his appeal, the former secretary has maintained that the action taken by the ICA ad hoc committee was in complete violation of rules, besides, he was not given any show cause notice to explain his position
