Asif's fate to be known on Sunday

Matters are reaching a head. The Dubai Attorney-General is likely to decide on Asif's fate on Sunday.

However, there are persistent rumors that he may be deported as early as tomorrow.

No matter how strong the anti drug laws are in Dubai, they can be easily arm twisted if you are the wealthy and well connected types. The only ones who die or are imprisoned there are the poor who are used as mules by the narcotics industry.

Remember DJ Aqeel? A nobody like Sanjay Khan could get him out.

It's looking like cricket's answer to Samuel Beckett's "Waiting for Godot".

Philip,

That is why I am intrigued. Why is there a delay despite intervention from Pakistan authorities.

There is more to this than a mere drug charge.

Som,

Is Asif a Godot? :)
