Suspended Pakistan pacer Mohammad Amir's lawyer said that they will lodge a protest with ICC over the continued leakage of confidential information.
According to Amir's lawyer, Shahid Karim the leaks of statements by Pakistan coach Waqar Younis and team's security manager Khawaja Najam, is damaging his client's image.
On Wednesday, Karim said that it a matter of concern that documents relating to the spot-fixing case are coming out in the media before the hearing.He said: "We have no clue how documents are being leaked. But it surely bothers my client as he thinks he is being portrayed negatively."
"We will lodge a protest with the International Cricket Council (ICC) on this issue and on how can such confidential documents are coming in public."
The statements given by Waqar and Najam to ICC's anti-corruption unit (ACU) was carried in a Pakistan dailyDawn on Tuesday.
According to the newspaper, Waqar said: "I was greatly surprised by Amir's no-ball during the Lord's Test. This was because Amir's front foot stepped over the line by a great distance whereas usually, if anything, Amir tends to bowl from well behind the front-foot line."
"I was so surprised by the delivery that when we went back into the dressing room I asked Amir in Punjabi, What the hell was that?."
"But before Amir had the chance to answer my question, Salman Butt interrupted, saying: ' I told him to come forward and bowl a bouncer'."
Najam in his statement has said: "During the Scotland Yard search of the players' rooms at the team hotel, two police officers found cash in a bag and a small suitcase which they seized. Most of the cash was in the suitcase."
Amir was suspended by ICC in September 2010 along with Salman and Mohammad Asif for their alleged involvement in spot-fixing. All three have denied their involvement in any spot-fixing.
Butt and Asif have separate lawyers preparing for the ICC tribunal hearing to be held in Doha from January 6 to 11.
