Give the guy a break, If our cricketers are allowed to play in australia, england then why not this? HE might not be a big name player but its small steps at a time and it could encourage other youngsters to come here and gain experience in sub continent conditions.

Exactly. This is excellent PR for Pak cricket, and also if his stay is good with no safety issues others will notice.
It’s just one guy but still a good start for us.

Not that great news now!

A former Big Bash League and state cricketer fronted court in Darwin on Monday, charged with possessing child abuse material and grooming a minor after his alleged behaviour was brought to the attention of cricket authorities.
Aaron Summers, 25, appeared in front of the Darwin Local Court, with police alleging that his mobile phone contained child abuse videos.
Summers played one game for the Hobart Hurricanes in late 2017 as well as three one-dayers with Tasmania, for whom he made his debut in 2018.
Summers, a fast bowler originally from Perth, had been due to play in this winter’s NT Cricket 365 tournament, an event run by Cricket Australia and featuring a host of current and former state and BBL players.
CA issued a statement to The Age and the Sydney Morning Herald on Monday.
“A matter was brought to the attention of NT Cricket and was immediately actioned in accordance with our member protection policy. In line with the policy the matter was referred to the relevant authorities and is now being handled by police,” the statement read.
No longer tied to an Australian state or BBL club, Summers earlier this year became the first Australian player to appear in Pakistani domestic cricket, playing for Southern Punjab in the Pakistan Cup. He said at the time that he had hoped the experience would help his path back into state and BBL ranks.
NT Police issued a statement in relation to the matter.
“Detectives from the Joint Anti-Child Exploitation Team (JACET) arrested a 25-year-old man in Fannie Bay on Friday afternoon for child abuse material.

“Police executed a section 3E Crimes Act 1914 (Cth) search warrant on the man and seized a mobile phone.
“Police will allege that the man’s mobile device contained a number of videos containing child abuse material. There was also evidence that the man had been in contact with up to 10 children to attempt to procure further illicit photographs.
“On 14 May 2021, Northern Territory and Australian Federal Police executed a further section 3E Crimes Act 1914 (Cth) search warrant on the man’s premises in the Darwin CBD. Police found a mobile device containing child abuse material
“The man has been charged with the following Commonwealth offences:
Two counts of possess or control child abuse material obtained or accessed using a carriage service, contrary to section 474.22 of the Criminal Code 1995 (Cth)
One count of use carriage service to groom a person under 16 years, contrary to section 474.27 of the Criminal Code 1995 (Cth)
“He has been remanded in custody to appear in Darwin Local Court on Monday, 17 May 2021.”
In the statement detective acting senior sergeant Paul Lawson said: “The behaviour is despicable. Young people should be able to enjoy their childhood without the fear of predators approaching them for their own appalling intentions. The Northern Territory JACET will continue to work with national and international partners to keep the most vulnerable in our community safe.”

Disgusting news. I really hope his abhorrent perversions weren't a factor in him choosing to play in Pakistan.

Absolutely disgusting. His time in Pakistan does need to be investigated as well. Need to ensure he wasn’t involved in such horrible actions during his time in Pakistan.

PCB/FIA etc need to step in and ask for relevant details from their Australian counterparts.

To enter any country - there are some basic criminal checks - am guessing he was fine at that point.

Was very odd when I read news about Summers going to Pakistan to play domestic cricket there. In my all years of watching cricket, it was the first time I read about someone from outside the subcontinent playing domestic cricket in the subcontinent, as it's usually the other way around. Now this revelation casts doubts on that move even further..

There are documentaries on boys prostitution (Bacchabaazi) in Pakistan. I think he watched them and came to Pakistan. I don't know if its true, but this guy is sick, if guilty. I hope he rots in jail for rest of his life.

Could be but it also could be that he was a struggling cricketer and jumped at the offer to play any sort of cricket and make money. However PCB should investigate what he did in Pakistan. I would assume because of security reason he probably wasn’t allowed to leave the hotel too much.
Anyways hopefully he spends the rest of his life in prison.
Your right now this has surfaced, this guy coming to pakistan domestic cricket looks even more odd. I hope his stay is investigated now if he has committed child abuse in pakistan

Absolutely shocking.
Pedophilia is a mental sickness, but there is no justification for this type of behavior.
Had he been caught in Pakistan, I think he'd be lucky to be alive right now.
Hopefully people like him are kept away from society, they don't deserve to be anywhere but jail.

What are you talking about?
Paedophilia (bacha-baazi) is rampant in certain parts of Pakistan

Depends what parts you're talking about. I know some parts of Pakistan really go after pedophiles, but it's unfortunate that this type of behavior is allowed or seen commonly in other parts.

So you’re wrong when you say he wouldn’t have been let out alive. Even sitting PML-N ministers in Punjab are involved in Kasur child pornography case

Hopefully we can see a change as the government needs to tackle this issue raging within Pakistan.
I just hope that we don't see more people like this Aaron Summers, and that children are provided the safety and security they need in order to grow up in a positive environment.
People like Summers are why the death penalty exists, as controversial as that statement might seem.
