Imran Nazir, the former opener of the Pakistan team, said that “They tried to kill me with poison”, which has created a stir in the cricket world.
In a recent interview, Imran Naseer said, “When my health was seriously affected and I was undergoing treatment for it, my medical report revealed that I had been poisoned. Someone added liquid mercury to my food. It affects our body parts little by little. Due to this, bone joints also wear out. I have been suffering from this disease for 6 years. I prayed to God that I should not procrastinate in bed.
My prayer was fulfilled. I am currently taking a walk. Many people who see me say you are fine. But there is something wrong with my eating. This poison does not work immediately. Affected only after many years. I never intended to harm anyone. But I don’t know why they tried to kill me. All the money I saved was spent on medical treatment. I had no money for my big treatment. Syed Afridi who knew my condition then spent 40-50 lakhs on me. Afridi sends money to my doctor daily. He said to the manager, ‘It doesn’t matter how much money you want, my brother has to survive’.
I don’t know how I’m going to help Afridi. He never asked anything about this money. My doctor has never cheated on me either. Imran Nazir has said that he only bought the money needed for the treatment. His claim that some people poisoned him has caused a sensation not only in Pakistan but also in the cricket world.
