Kashmiri cricketer terms his detention unfortunate | Kasmiri cricketer Parvez Rasool, who was allegedly detained for
questioning after residue of explosives were found in his bag, said here on Thursday
that his questioning was unfortunate. On October 17, Rasool, along with his teammate
Mehraj-u-din, were detained by the Bangalore Police after a residue of explosive
material was allegedly found in their bags. The J and K team was in the city to
play the C K Nayadu Trophy cricket tournament. "I would only term it as an unfortunate
incident; it is all god's wish," said Rasool. He expressed happiness over getting
support from the Jammu and Kashmir Cricket Association (JKCA) and from the people
back home. Meanwhile, the Jammu and Kashmir cricket team’s coach, Abdul Kareem
is upset over the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) officials who asked
the team to vacate the premises without informing proper reasons. "Nobody from
the Karnataka State Cricket Association had come to the police station to support
us," Kareem said. The J and K team was seen practicing at the Chinnaswamy Stadium
with black bands on their t-shirts, as part of their protest against the allegations
on the cricketers. Rasool is now concentrating on the game and hopes that he will
be cleared of all charges soon. |
