According to Rashid Latif, Malik probably fixed the Christchurch match with

Ijaz Ahmed and Zafar Ali Jojo. He went to Sri Lanka and fixed the Singer Trophy
match with Salim Pervez. There, John had approached the Australians. Malik was
probably told of this. He therefore tried to bribe the Australians when he saw
them. Then when the team went to South Africa, the matter came to a head when
Rashid Latif finally cried foul in public. The Australians thereafter came forward
with their allegations. The pattern is there.

As against Wasim Akram there was the evidence of Ata-ur-Rehman primarily and
to certain extent Rashid Latif. Plus there were statements of various office
holders and the issue of changing the batting order in Sharjah and the withdrawal
from the Quarterfinal in Bangalore. In light of Atas U-turn, Atas story cannot be
believed. However, it should be recommended that Wasim Akram be warned and kept
under observation.

As against Mushtaq there is the statement of Salim Pervez that he did give
Mushtaq and Malik the money to fix a match in Sri Lanka.

With this the inquiry was closed on the 30th of September, 1999.
