Sydney, Sep 14 (IANS) Tainted Pakistani pacer Mohammad Aamer, who has been provisionally suspended by the International Cricket Council (ICC) in the spot-fixing controversy, might spill the beans on his teammates and reveal identities of the shady personalities that corrupted him.
The 18-year-old fast bowler is seriously contemplating co-operating with the London police and the ICC investigations into the spot-fixing scandal that rocked world cricket last month, according to a report in The Daily Telegraph.
It is understood that Aamer wants to tell his story and possibly give evidence against Salman Butt, Mohammad Asif and the other Pakistani players under investigation.
Given his age, inexperience and potential co-operation with authorities, it is likely that Aamer could receive lighter punishment compared to the other cricketers involved in the controversy.
Aamer returned to Pakistan Saturday along with Salman Butt and Mohammad Asif, who have also been provisionally suspended by ICC, amid heavy security and hostile crowd at the Lahore airport.
He is believed to be holed up with his family near the remote village of Changa Bangyaa, in the Punjab region, where he is considering his next move, the report said.
The trio can be called back by the London Police for investigation purpose if need arises.
The spot-fixing controversy broke out when an undercover News of the World reporter paid cricket agent Mazhar Majeed 150,000 pounds in return for the details related to the fourth Test match between Pakistan and England.
