Former Pakistan Test off-spinner and current umpire Akram Raza has been arrested after police conducted a raid to bust a gang of bookmakers taking illegal bets on the ongoing Indian Premier League matches.

“We arrested seven men from a plaza in Liberty area in Gulberg today and one of them has been identified as Akram Raza a former Pakistan player,” a senior police officer at the Gulberg police station said.

He said the police had got a tip off that a gang of known bookmakers was running a book on the IPL in the liberty area and conducted the raid.

**“We recovered cash, mobile phones and many telephone numbers in India,” he said.

He said the arrested persons including Raza had been lodged at the Gulberg station but not charged as yet.

Lets hope Akram and others are punished to the extent of law and also I hope they pakistani authorities share the indian numbers with indian media and they publish these numbers and people who they belong to and indian authorities launch an investigation like pakistani authorities have (which resulted in this raid) and start a solid investigation against all kind of betting/fixing in cricket from home ground of global fixing/betting mafia.
