The Pakistani cricket player Haider Ali exempt from accusations of rape in the United Kingdom | Cricket news
Pakistani cricket player Haider Ali, 24, has been rid of rape accusations in the United Kingdom after investigators found insufficient evidence. Greater Manchester Police (GMP) and Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) closed the case that started with its arrest on August 4 at Spitfire County Cricket Ground in Kent, following accusations of a British-Pakistani woman.The woman said she met Ali in a Manchester hotel on July 23, where the alleged incident had taken place. She said that they gathered on August 1 in Ashford before lodging her complaint on August 4. Throughout the investigation, Ali maintained his innocence, declaring that he knew the woman as ani and called the “shocking” and “false” accusations.
According to reports, Ali’s passport was returned by the police, allowing him to leave the country at his discretion. The conclusions of the investigation were reinforced by evidence showing that the complainant had reserved the hotel room under his name for what seemed to be a consensual meeting. The delayed filing of the complaint also weakened the case against Ali.During the survey, Ali received a legal representation from the expert in criminal law based in the United Kingdom, Moeen Khan. Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) had temporarily suspended Ali as a result of its code of conduct for players involved in criminal cases. The affair now rejected, he can resume his cricket career.Ali, who made his international debut in 2020, played in 35 International T20 and two ODIs for Pakistan, marking 499 points in T20 format. Although he can now return to cricket, the PCB should conduct his own internal investigation on his return to Pakistan.Its last international appearance took place at the Asian games of 2023.
