He didn't accuse him of tampering, he went mad about Wahab kicking the ball. Any side batting last would do the same if the main exponent of reverse used his boots on the ball.
No story here but a funny moment when it happened.
it only a story as it Pakistan v England AGAIN.

The penalty for being caught with drugs in the UAE is death. But somehow Asif not only managed to worm his way out of that but his ban to enter the UAE has been overturned. I wonder how he managed to do that.

Not surprised he was reported, while its not has bad as Afridi stepping on pitch in Faisalabad 2005 - the optics didn't look good even though I doubt kicking the ball really can be ball tampering or that i buy his explanation that his hands were sweaty and just didn't want to pick ball up, because he was trying to maintain the reverse-swing he was getting.

Thankfully Pakistan didn't suddenly take 4-30 and the ball moved sideways.
Not sure there is an awful lot to worry about as the umpires would have checked the ball and not as though the result is going to change anyway.

The English press all having a (justified, as it turned out..) waaaa about Ajmal chucking was probably the most controversial thing to happy during that series. Definitely counts as a 'story' though IMO.

Murmurs about Ajmal's action
The 1992 and 1996 series were filled with ball tampering controversies. Wasim, Waqar, Aaqib were seen (and to an extent justifiably) as spoiled bad boys by the English media..
The 2001 series had Saqlain getting wickets off no balls which Shepherd missed.

All started with Gatting vs Shakoor in 87.

I think it started even earlier with David Constant (in 1982? 87?)

Its so long ago now, but I don't recall much issues in 1996 series especially regarding tampering as their was in 1992 - however I could be wrong. Regarding 2001, they have been showing highly of that Manchester test match (i was there) at the end of the days plays a few times on skysports, ha up to this day its crazy how Shepherd missed those Saqlain no-balls.
