FIFA suspends Ganesh Thapa for four months

Posted by Rajesh KC- November 04, 2014 :


FIFA has suspended the President of ANFA (All Nepal Football Association), Ganesh Thapa for four months beginning 4 November 2014 while FIFA's ethics committee investigates allegations of financial irregularities made by two of his own vice-presidents, FIFA said on Tuesday. The world football governing body made the decision to ask Thapa to refrain from any football activities during the period when the FIFA Ethics Committee completes its review of claims involving alleged misconduct by ANFA officials. Thapa has repeatedly denied all the allegations, saying he has done nothing wrong. The suspension means that Thapa will not be able to participate in any football-related activity at national and international level for four months. Thapa, meanwhile, informed the investigatory chamber of the FIFA Ethics Committee that he has agreed to FIFA's decision.
