FIFA suspends Pakistan football after hostile takeover | Football News

FIFA, football’s world governing body, has suspended the Pakistan Football Federation (PFF) due to third-party interference. A group of football officials, led by Ashfaq Hussain Shah, who was elected as PFF president in the 2018 elections sanctioned by the Supreme Court but not recognised by FIFA, took over the headquarters last month and seized control from the PFF Normalisation Committee (NC) appointed by FIFA and headed by Haroon Malik. FIFA said its decision to suspend the PFF was prompted by the “hostile takeover” which constituted a serious violation of its statutes. “FIFA issued a letter warning that, should the illegitimate occupation of the PFF headquarters not be lifted and the office bearers recognised by FIFA not be permitted free access to the building to carry out their mandate, the matter would be immediately submitted to the Bureau of the Council for decision,” FIFA said.

FIFA suspends PFF with immediate effect over third-party inference - Sport

FIFA on Wednesday suspended the Pakistan Football Federation (PFF) with immediate effect due to third-party interference. In a statement, the global body said that third-party inference was a serious violation of the FIFA statutes. This situation was prompted by the recent hostile takeover of the PFF headquarters in Lahore by a group of protestors and an alleged decision by certain individuals to remove the FIFA-appointed normalisation committee of the PFF led by Haroon Malik and to hand over the leadership of the PFF to Syed Ashfaq Hussain Shah, the statement added. The suspension will only be lifted once FIFA has received conformation from the normalisation committee stating that its premises, accounts, administration and communication channels are again under its full control and it can continue to carry out its mandate without further hindrance.
