KABUL (AFP)
The head of the Afghan Football Federation, Karamuddin Karim, denied on Monday in an interview with the Agence France-Presse the accusations against him and other officials of the Union for having abused elected players, claiming that it is manufactured to support asylum applications to Europe. Karim is accused of beating players to the point of threatening one with a pistol, in a case evoked by an article in the British newspaper The Guardian at the end of November. The union president, who was suspended from his duties and prevented from traveling on the sidelines of the investigation into the case, said he was confident about the possibility that he was innocent. "I strongly deny these allegations," he said. "It's a conspiracy, no evidence or evidence has been provided."
