Harap mereka beri sampel kerana MSM, ISN mahu bersungguh pulihkan imej sukan

ENAM atlit olahraga kebangsaan mencetuskan kontroversi apabila gagal menjalani ujian 'antidoping' seperti diwajibkan sebelum dijadualkan berangkat menjalani latihan dan kejohanan di Bulgaria, 28 Mei hingga 3 Julai ini.
Begitupun lima daripada mereka sudah pun menjalani pemeriksaan kesihatan kelmarin, namun gagal hadir apabila diberitahu diwajibkan menjalani ujian berkenaan sejurus selepas itu.

Perkara berkenaan nyata menimbulkan banyak persoalan buat Ketua Pengarah Majlis Sukan Negara (MSN), Datuk Zolkples Embong dan Ketua Pengarah Institut Sukan Negara (ISN), Datuk Dr Ramlan Abdul Aziz yang tertanya-tanya punca ‘kehilangan’ mereka daripada menjalani ujian berkenaan.

“Di sini (kejadian kelmarin), mereka melakukan dua kesalahan iaitu gagal melapor untuk melakukan ujian antidoping dan kedua, gagal dihubungi apabila pihak ISN cuba menghubungi mereka.

“Jika kesemua ini gagal, maka ISN perlu memaklumkan kepada pihak persatuan untuk tindakan selanjutnya.

“Kita berharap semua atlit dapat memberi sampel seperti yang diperlukan. Kita mengambil masa bertahun-tahun untuk pulihkan imej sukan negara dan saya ingin memberi peringatan kepada semua atlit supaya mengambil sikap serius apabila diminta menjalani ujian antidoping,” kata Dr Ramlan dalam sidang media, semalam.
Menurutnya, berdasarkan insiden mendukacitakan kelmarin, pihak kejurulatihan juga boleh dikenakan tindakan kerana mereka adalah orang paling rapat dengan atlit dan berhak memaklumkan pihak berwajib setiap kali atlit dikehendaki.

“Sekarang ini kalau ada masalah bukan saja atlit tetapi jurulatih juga boleh dikenakan tindakan. Oleh itu, kita mengharapkan kerjasama pihak jurulatih untuk mendapatkan atlit bagi menjalani ujian.”

Dalam nada yang sama, Zolkples berkata, dia kecewa dengan sikap atlit berkenaan yang dianggap senior dan sudah berkali-kali menjalani ujian yang sama sebelum ini

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...

As such, the Prime Minister said, it was important to scout for young talents in sports. "I observe that the Malaysia Games (Sukma) has become one of the important platforms to do so. "In this arena, the potentials and skills of the youngsters can be identified for development so that they can achieve greater success in sports," he said in his message in the souvenir book of the 12th Sukma from May 31 until June 9.

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...
