Pakistan wicketkeeper-batsman, Mohammad Rizwan, went on a visit to Nepal on Sunday to meet the Nepal Cricket team.
On Monday morning, Rizwan met the national players of Nepal, including the rape-accused Sandeep Lamichhane. “We met with Rizwan in the morning,” said a player.
On Sunday evening, Rizwan met Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN) President Chatur Bahadur Chand and had a discussion about the growth of cricket in the country.
Chand revealed that Rizwan had specifically asked to meet Lamichhane during his visit.
“Rizwan said that he came to see Sandeep as he could not go out of country,” Chand was quoted as saying by My Republica, Nepal. Rizwan and Sandeep are represented by the same sports management company, Saya Corporation..
Nepal’s cricket board this week lifted the suspension of Sandeep even as the Himalayan republic’s top law officer sought to have him sent back to custody on rape charges.
