Will Mohammad Asif be allowed to attend in IPL T20 tournament?

Mohammad Asif, Pakistan pace bowler who played in inaugural India Premier League but for having drugs and was under arrest at the Dubai airport during return to home last year. Now, it is a question that will he get permission to play in the second season of IPL T20. Although Dubai police did filed any case but informed the PCB about his unexpected matter. Still now, PCB has kept him in suspension. May be there is a rule in IPL that no ban players will allow to attend in the T20 tournament. 

But Mohammad Asif strongly showed positive document on behalf of him that has taken treatment from a local Hakim who told him to use but he did not know that it was opium. 

NDTV reported:

"Although no criminal charges was laid against him, but since he was deported Asif cannot enter Dubai unless he is given permission by the immigration and police authorities there," one PCB source said.

 

Although the amount of drug was just 0.24 grams but in the view of law is it totally illegal. Now he has to wait for the PCB’s positive signal. Here I want to mention about the massive terrorist attacks in Mumbai the relationship come negative between the two countries India and Pakistan. That is why the matches between India and Pakistan has been kept stop. So, this decision will felt effect to attend the Pakistan players to play in the fourth coming IPL T20 tournament?
