Afghanistan top-order batter Ihsanullah Janat has been banned from all forms of cricketing activities for five years following breaches of ACB and ICC Anti-Corruption Codes during the 2nd edition of the Kabul Premier League (KPL).
Janat was found guilty of violating Article 2.1.1 of the ICC Anti-Corruption Code, which involves improper influence or efforts to fix the result, progress, conduct, or any other aspect of a match.
In light of this violation, he has been handed a five-year ban from all cricket-related activities. Janat has admitted to the charges and confessed to his involvement in corrupt activities.
The ACB Anti-Corruption Unit (ACU) has revealed that three other players are also under suspicion for involvement in match-fixing, and investigations are underway. Decisions regarding their involvement will be made upon confirmation of their guilt.
The ban on Ihsanullah Janat takes effect immediately with the release of this statement and will remain in place for the next five years. (Afghanistan Cricket)
