  Within the standard model, a relation involving branching ratios and direct
CP asymmetries holds for the B-decay pairs that are related by U-spin. The
violation of this relation indicates new physics (NP). In this paper, we assume
that the NP affects only the Delta S = 1 decays, and show that the NP operators
are generally the same as those appearing in B -> pi K decays. The fit to the
latest B -> pi K data shows that only one NP operator is sizeable. As a
consequence, the relation is expected to be violated for only one decay pair:
Bd -> K0 pi0 and Bs -> Kbar0 pi0.
