    Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan on Tuesday took notice of the contradictory reports about spot fixing scam and directed Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to work together with mutual consultation and coordination to resolve the scam.

    Chaudhry Nisar said that FIA is fully empowered to investigate corruption cases independently, but even then, the agency is directed to collaborate with PCB in spot-fixing case.
