KARACHI: Administrator Karachi Barrister Murtaza Wahab dismissed all the allegations on former Pakistani skipper Sarfaraz Ahmed for illegally occupying the land of women’s college in North Nazimabad.
While addressing the media here on Wednesday, Wahab said the land of Sarfaraz Ahmed Academy is owned by KMC and its charge was given to the cricketer after he led Pakistan to Champions Trophy triumph in 2017.
“Allegations raised by college principal on the former captain and cricketer Sarfaraz Ahmed are false. Land of Sarfaraz Ahmed Academy is owned by KMC and was named after Sarfaraz in 2017 after he led Pakistan to Champions Trophy 2017 triumph,” said the Sindh government’s spokesperson.
“Sarfaraz has the charge of that land since 2017. The college had two entry gates, one was from the cricket academy. Recently, the college management decided to use the gate of the cricket academy for parking which was, as a result, destroying the ground. The ground management then closed cricket academy door for parking purpose that sparked outrage,” he went on to explain the matter.
Wahab asked the media and people to know the complete facts before reporting anything. “I request to media and people on social media to cross-check the facts before reporting anything. The matter is taken up and will be resolved very soon,” he concluded.
