Imran slams Sethi as corruption allegations surface in PSL

Imran and Najam Sethi
Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Saturday took a jibe at Pakistan Super League Chairman Najam Sethi saying it was a “joke” that a person who was allegedly involved in election rigging had set out to eliminate spot-fixing from the Pakistan Cricket Team.
The PTI chief’s remarks came after two players of the Islamabad United were suspended over corruption charges, while the names of more players have surfaced in connection with the probe.
Khan said while spot-fixing only affects cricket, election “fixing” is a greater offence that threatens democracy.
“Joke: Election fixer Sethi to eliminate cricket spot fixing! Latter only affects cricket; elec “fixing” greater crime threatening democracy,” he tweeted.
The PTI chief had in 2015 accused Sethi of fixing ‘35 punctures’, which referred to alleged electoral rigging in 35 constituencies of Punjab in the 2013 general elections, but later brushed it aside as “political statement”.

Tech Career Checklist: Aggressive Diversity, Cold Cash         become convinced that too many of us don't prioritize our employment choices properly.

Having watched a ton of my peers lose their options over the years -- and more recently, watching the issues surrounding harassment and diversity in most tech firms...

Google's Daydream platform really looked interesting at launch, but it has been kind of problematic in terms of use. That is because when you place your smartphone into a carrier, it might not fit well, and you could end up with something less than ideal. The less-than-ideal part might kick in when email, phone calls, social networking alerts, or text messages come in, screwing up your experience. The headsets Samsung designed for its phones actually are impressively good, but the fact remains that the smartphone is far more a communications device than a virtual reality showcase. Still, this approach has proven to be a very inexpensive way to get into VR. The headsets that use the phones are cheap, some well under $20 (granted most of these are junk) so it does allow folks to get a VR experience without a huge investment. However, if you should get hooked and want something better, the jump-up could be massive: A PC-based VR solution could cost thousands of dollars. The...
