Yawar told Geo Super channel from London on Saturday that police officials were in the team hotel and recording statements from captain Salman Butt, Muhammad Asif, Muhammad Aamir and Kamran Akmal. “They have also spoken to me and I have tried to answer their queries. We will cooperate all the way with them in these investigations,” Yawar said.
