Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I tinihangatia e te tangata tinihanga he kaitakaro kirikiti o mua o Pakistan te BBC ki te utu ia ia ki te puta i runga i te rangi hei kaitohutohu. Nadeem Alam i whakaarihia hei kaitakaro whutupaoro o mua a Nadeem Abbasi i runga i te BBC World News, BBC Asian Network me Radio Five Live, ahakoa i purei ia mo tana taone nui o Huddersfield. I roto hoki i tana mahi he korerorero ki te kaitakaro whutupaoro Inia o mua a Aakash Chopra. I whakaponohia e Nadeem Alam i nga wa katoa ki te BBC ko ia te whetu kirikiti Pakistani a Nadeem Abbasi. Inaianei kei te riri a Abbasi i muri i tana mohiotanga ki nga mahi a te tinihanga - a ka whiua e ia te BBC mo te kore e tirotiro i a raatau korero. Ko Abbasi, i takaro e toru nga Whakamatau mo Pakistan i te tau 1989, he riri ki te mea kua kino te ingoa o tana whenua me te whakamahere ki te patu i a ia mena ka tutaki ratou, i kii te Sun. I kii ia ki te niupepa: 'Ki te kitea e au a Nadeem Alam, ka whiua e au ki tona mata mo te kino o te ingoa o te whenua.' Ko te 46-tau-tau, e whakangungu nei i tetahi kapa i Rawalpindi, ka tapiritia: 'He whare nui te BBC, a me tino tirotiro ratou?' I tapiritia e ia ko tana putanga pāpāho anake i runga i te pouaka whakaata Pakistani i te wa o te Ipu o te Ao i te tau 1996. Ko Nadeeem Abbasi (matau) e riri ana i muri i tana kitenga me te whakahe i te BBC mo te kore tirotiro. Ka whai whakamarietanga ia i te whakamanatanga a Alam 'kaore ia e whakaaro ana ko ia a Nadeem Abbasi'. Engari i tāpiri atu a Alam e whakapono ana ia he 'pai' ōna whakaaro. Ko te 46-tau-tawhito, nana nei i whakaae he kaitakaro squash ki te tahae i nga taputapu koreutu, i kii ki te Ra: 'E pai ana ahau ki te whakaaro kua pai taku korero mo te kirikiti.' I kii tetahi kaikorero a BBC: 'Ka tono matou i te mihi ki a Mr Abbasi pono, a ka tino tirohia e matou nga mea kua tupu.'
Ko Nadeem Alam, 46, he maha nga wa i whakaatuhia ai ko te whetu kirikiti a Nadeem Abbasi, 46 ano hoki. I puta i runga i te BBC World News, BBC Asian Network me Radio Five Live. Engari i tākaro kirikiti anake ia mō tōna tāone kāinga o Huddersfield. E mea ana a Abbasi ka whiua e ia a Alam mēnā ka tūtaki atu ia ki a ia.
