Pemain gagal lepasi ujian doping

TAUFEK (kanan) mengesahkan seorang pemain gagal dalam ujian doping pada 29 Jun lalu.


ARENA sukan tanah air tiba-tiba digemparkan dengan berita seorang pemain bola sepak didapati positif dalam ujian doping selepas tamat aksi final Piala FA di Stadium Nasional Bukit Jalil 29 Jun lalu.

Berita mengejutkan itu disahkan oleh Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Tatatertib Persatuan Bola Sepak Malaysia (FAM), Datuk Taufek Razak semalam, namun beliau enggan mendedahkan nama pemain terbabit.

Bagaimanapun, Taufek berkata, pihaknya belum menjatuhkan sebarang hukuman kerana mahu memberi ā€˜peluang keduaā€™ kepada pemain terbabit.

ā€œKes ini melibatkan seorang pemain yang dituduh terlibat dalam penyalahgunaan dadah selepas final Piala FA.

ā€œNamun, Jawatankuasa Tatatertib FAM memutuskan untuk menangguhkan dahulu hukuman bagi membolehkan pemain itu tampil memberi keterangan.

ā€œBuat masa ini, saya hanya boleh mengesahkan pemain itu gagal dalam ujian doping pertama,ā€ kata Taufek ketika ditemui di Wisma FAM, Kelana Jaya semalam.
Taufek berkata, pihaknya telah mengemukakan laporan ujian doping itu kepada majikan (persatuan bola sepak negeri) pemain terbabit pada 19 Julai lalu.

ā€œBagaimanapun, sehingga hari ini, FAM masih belum menerima sebarang maklum balas daripada persatuan negeri tersebut.

ā€œJadi Jawatankuasa Tatatertib FAM memutuskan untuk menangguhkan dahulu bentuk hukuman untuk memberikan peluang kepada pemain itu hadir memberikan keterangan pada mesyuarat yang akan ditetapkan nanti.

ā€œApa yang boleh saya katakan, pemain terbabit memang sah gagal ujian doping pertama yang dilakukan selepas tamat aksi final Piala FA pada 29 Jun lalu,ā€ tambahnya.

Taufek turut memberikan amaran bahawa pemain yang didakwa gagal ujian doping itu akan digantung seumur hidup sekiranya masih gagal ujian kedua doping nanti.

ā€œKami mengetahui keputusan doping selepas aksi final Piala FA dan pemain itu berdepan hukuman maksimum gantung seumur hidup jika disabit kesalahan,ā€ katanya.

Aksi final Piala FA musim ini telah menemukan Johor Darul Takzim (Johor DT) dan Kelantan di Stadium Nasional Bukit Jalil yang menyaksikan The Red Warriors dinobatkan sebagai juara apabila menang 1-0.

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...
