We are Imparting Discipline In You, FUFA Fines Kasingye at a tune of 2.5M for ‘Misconduct’

Following his misconduct on 19th February, 2021 when his Club lost 3-2 against Vipers SC at St Mary’s Stadium Kitende, chairman Uganda Police FC has been fined with 2.5M.

And if AIGP Asan Kasingye doesn’t comply he stands a chance of being banned from any football related activities for a period of six months.

The Federation of Uganda Football Associations (FUFA) Ethics and Disciplinary Committee has sanctioned AIGP Asan Kaingye for violating Article 39(2) of the FUFA Ethics Code which provides that; Persons bound by this Code are forbidden from making any public statements of a defamatory nature towards FUFA and /or towards any other person bound by this code in the context of FUFA events.

“Mr. Asan Kasingye is sanctioned with;
1. A minimum fine of UGX 2.5M ( Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Uganda Shillings Only) under Article 39 (3) and Article 40 (2) of the FUFA Ethics Code. The fine must be paid within thirty (30) days from receipt of the decision.” Communication from Ethics committee reads.

“2. An automatic six months ban from all football related activities both Nationally and Internationally to be served in the event that Mr.Asan Kasingye commits any other specified unethical conduct against match officials or club officials or in case he fails to furnish proof of payment of the fine.” It continues.

It should be recalled that in the  Uganda Premier League fixture between Vipers SC and Uganda Police FC, AISP Asan Kasingye went to the pitch touchline in protest of referee’s call to award the Cops’ custodian, Derrick Ochan with a red card.

By the time the punished announced to him, Kasingye was eagerly waiting for it because once on his twitter handle, he said that FUFA should hurry to punish him.
