Any confirmation about the release or is the ove-hyped superstar still locked up?
How did he travel during past and didn't get caught?
because he never had 650000 USD backing to slap a security guard before..

Re: Mohammad Asif Arrested in Dubai!
It is pathetic that guys like Asif - coming from modest backgrounds lose their head when they get fame and wealth.. there needs to be a systemetic grooming for such get-quick fame youngsters by PCB... the erroneous way Asif was bowwling in lately concluded IPL was a sign for such disaster...

So it's okay for guys from non-modest backgrounds to lose their heads? I would've thought what's wrong is wrong, regardless of the background the cricketer came from.

Another twist :
Asif likely to remain in detention
Cricinfo staff
June 4, 2008
Mohammad Asif is likely to remain in detention in Dubai for another three to four days, a Pakistan board official has said, quashing widespread speculation that he has been released or had charges against him dropped.
Asif has been detained at Dubai International Airport since Sunday after an allegedly contraband substance was found in his wallet. Since then, the PCB has appointed legal counsel for him and sent a senior board official to Dubai to handle the case.
Discussions took place between Asif’s lawyer and prosecutors yesterday, though with no immediate resolution. A PCB official told Cricinfo that results from a urine test authorities carried out on Asif are still awaited, as are the results of a test on the substance itself. The fact that it has taken them so long to get results is in itself a concern, the official said.
Further complicating the matter is the fact that there has been a death in the UAE’s royal family, which generally means that the various states will observe a period of mourning now over the next few days and that public offices may remain closed.
Several TV channels and newspapers have reported today that charges against Asif have been dropped. Dawn newspaper reported the Pakistani ambassador to the UAE as saying that charges have been dropped and that Asif is due to head back to Pakistan on the first available flight.
“These are incorrect as far as we know,” a PCB official told Cricinfo. “The charges haven’t even been laid against him so far. As far as we know of the process, the airport prosecutor lays the charges down and passes on to the public prosecutor who will then decide whether or not this should go to trial. That process, we have been told, can take three to four days. But we are concerned that they have not come back still with results of the urine test, which they carried out on Sunday and the tests on the substance.”

Re: Mohammad Asif Arrested in Dubai!
Some1 yaar, stop coming up with these heart-stopping twists. I jumped on the Asif-bashing bandwagon as soon as the story broke, but I just finished watching some clips of his bowling on Youtube, and I've changed my mind about him. He's awesome, and Pakistan cricket needs him. Really hoping this matter is resolved.
Re: Mohammad Asif Arrested in Dubai!
Some1, your wishes came true. Asif has been dropped from Tri-Series and replaced with Sohail Khan.
