FIFA suspends, fines Thailand`s Makudi

2016-02-23
ZURICH: FIFA`s disciplinary committee has banned Worawi Makudi, former president of the Football Association of Thailand and a former member of the FIFA Executive Committee, for three months for failing to comply with an earlier suspension, FIFA said.

The global football body`s ethics committee in October had banned Makudi from all football activities for 90 days.

`The disciplinary commit-tee found that Mr Makudi was still involved in FAT affairs during this period...and has therefore decided to ban him from taking part in any kind of football-related activity at national and international level for a period of three months, a FIFA statement on Monday said.

It also fined him 3,000 Swiss francs ($3,015) and issued a warning.-Reuters
