Perlu gerak otot selepas enam minggu - ISN

KUALA LUMPUR - Pelumba berbasikal trek negara, Azizulhasni Awang yang kini dalam proses pemulihan selepas menjalani pembedahan mengeluarkan serpihan kayu daripada betisnya, tidak boleh berehat terlalu lama bagi mengelakkan otot kakinya kejang.

Ketua Pengarah Institut Sukan Negara (ISN), Datuk Dr. Ramlan Abd. Aziz berkata, berdasarkan laporan awal kecederaan Mohd. Azizulhasni yang diperoleh dari Melbourne, pelumba itu perlukan rehat tiga hingga empat minggu tanpa sebarang latihan ringan.

"Pada minggu keenam hingga kelapan, Azizulhasni perlu menjalani proses mobilisasi, bergerak dalam posisi tertentu, bagi menggerakkan otot-otot kakinya.

"Selepas penilaian proses mobilisasi tersebut, barulah dia boleh menjalani latihan ringan. Jika berehat terlalu lama, otot-otot kakinya akan menjadi ketat," katanya di sini, semalam.

Azizulhasni, pelumba sandaran utama untuk meraih pingat emas pertama Malaysia dari Sukan Olimpik di London pada tahun hadapan, terbabit dengan kemalangan dalam laluannya untuk memenangi pingat gangsa Piala Dunia Klasik di Manchester pada Ahad.

Kemalangan itu menyebabkan serpihan kayu sepanjang 20 sentimeter tertusuk pada betis kirinya. Mohd. Azizulhasni kemudian menjalani pembedahan di Hospital Diraja Manchester dan kemudian pulang ke Melbourne.

Dr. Ramlan berkata beliau akan ke Melbourne dalam tempoh terdekat bagi menilai sendiri kecederaan Mohd. Azizulhasni berdasarkan laporan daripada doktor yang merawat pelumba itu dan ketua pasukan ISN bagi pelumba trek negara yang berpangkalan di Melbourne, Kate Wallis.

Dr. Ramlan berkata, ketika ini, beliau hanya mendapat laporan awal daripada Wallis.

"Saya mendapat tahu, selepas diterbangkan dari Manchester menerusi kelas ekonomi kerana Mohd. Azizulhasni tidak dibenarkan membengkokkan lututnya dan mendapat rawatan dari sebuah hospital di Melbourne, pelumba itu diberikan rawatan pesakit luar dan kini berehat di rumahnya," katanya.

Dr. Ramlan berkata, tempoh rehat selama tiga hingga empat minggu itu bagi membolehkan tisu-tisu yang tertusuk serpihan kayu itu sembuh sepenuhnya.

Beliau berkata, selain memantau kecederaan fizikal, pelumba itu juga akan diberikan sokongan psikologi oleh unit ISN di Melbourne bagi membolehkan dia pulih sepenuhnya sebelum kembali menyertai kejohanan kompetitif. - Bernama

Ex-coach's jail sentence cut to a year

PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal yesterday sentenced former athletics coach C. Ramanathan to 12 months' jail for molesting two junior athletes 19 years ago. A three-man bench led by Datuk Mohd Hishamudin Mohd Yunus unanimously dismissed Ramanathan's appeal against conviction, but varied the jail sentence of four years to a year, which was to run concurrently. Following yesterday's ruling, Ramanathan, 75, a former teacher, walked out a free man as he had served 10 months in Kajang Prison. Convicts get one-third remission for good behaviour while in prison. However, he will lose his pension. Hishamudin, who sat with Datuk Abdul Wahab Patail and Datuk Linton Albert, said the court found no merit to overturn the conviction. "However, in reducing the sentence, we considered Ramanathan's age and the long years the appeal has taken." Deputy public prosecutor Awang Armadajaya Awang Mahmud submitted that then High Court judge Tan Sri Abdull Hamid E...

Rajagobal Let Off The Hook

PETALING JAYA, April 24 (Bernama) -- National head coach Datuk K. Rajagobal was let off the hook by the Football Association of Malaysia's (FAM) Disciplinary Committee after finding no evidence that he had violated FAM's Article 88, as claimed. FAM Disciplinary Committee chairman Datuk Taufik Abdul Razak said the committee had decided not to charge Rajagobal after carefully analysing the video of the post-match press conference by the 56-year-old coach. "After listening to the recording of the post-match press conference, we decided to drop the charge against Rajagopal as he did not make such a statement. "Maybe his (Rajagobal) assessment and comments of the match was misconstrued by the media. There was no mention of the FAM policy throughout his comments," said Taufik after emerging from a three-hour Disciplinary Committee meeting at Wisma FAM in Kelana Jaya, here, Wednesday. Rajagobal who does not mince his words when asked to com...
