Gor Mahia was struck by a suspension barring him from attending the Cecafa Kagame Cup for two years.
The decision was made after the Kenyan football club did not show up at the closing ceremony of the tournament on Friday night in Dar es Salaam.
Gor Mahia finished third in the regional football competition and had to pocket 1 million shillings.
In defending his title, Tanzanian Azam FC beat his nearest opponent, Simba, 2-1.
According to the rules of the tournament, the first three teams, Simba, Azam and Gor Mahia, had to climb on the podium to receive medals and checks from their winners, a ceremony that Gor Mahia has snubbed.
A Cecafa official revealed that they had asked Gor Mahia for bank details but that they had waited in vain. "We met Gor Mahia on Thursday and we asked them to give us their bank details.We waited in vain for Simba, Azam and even JKU gave us theirs because they knew that they are in the slice of money.We had to release the money Saturday noon on their respective bank accounts, "explained the head of Cecafa.
