Security inadequate, says Imran Khan

Wednesday, March 04, 2009

Former Pakistan captain Imran Khan blamed lax security for the gun and grenade attack on the Sri Lankan team, saying officials must be held to account for the incident.

The match at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore was abandoned and air force helicopters evacuated the Sri Lankan team from the ground.

Khan, now a politician, said security for the cricketers was 10 times less than that provided for government officials and advisers.
