The
adjudicatory chamber of the FIFA Ethics Committee, chaired by
Hans-Joachim Eckert, has decided to ban FIFA Executive Committee member
Vernon Manilal Fernando from taking part in any kind of football-related
activity at national and international level for a period of eight
years after he was found guilty of several breaches of the FIFA Code of
Ethics. The decision was reached following two days of hearings held on
29 and 30 April at FIFA’s headquarters in Zurich.
The
ban is effective from 11 March 2013, the date on which he was
provisionally suspended by the chairman of the adjudicatory chamber.
