Turkish Arbitration Chair Jailed for Corruption
The head of the Turkish Arbitration Committee and four other individuals have been detained in connection with a corruption case related to manipulation in the administration of arbitration affairs within the Turkish Football Federation. The court issued prison sentences for five of them, while two others were released pending further investigation. The charges against them include document forgery, breach of trust, and illegal possession of personal data. These events follow a year after the Turkish Football Federation suspended 149 referees due to a scandal involving illegal betting. Prosecutors suspect that the accused influenced referees' ratings and promotion and appointment processes through forgery and systematic intimidation.
