I'm sad for Aamir, but i must agree that it's fantastic news that Asif and Butt have been sentenced.
They've probably been at it for a number of years too. Justice has finally been served in my opinion.

I am sure I would find it tempting if I had grown up in some hell hole in Karachi.

I don't want to sound self-righteous Dog, but I hope I would tell the fixer where he could stick his rupees.
