WAC Casablanca President Files FIFA and CAF Complaints Over Controversial Tunisia Match

The president of WAC Casablanca, Said Naciri, has decided to file a double complaint with the FIFA and CAF disciplinary committees against the presidents of the Tunisian Football Federation and the Tunisian club Espérance de Tunis, as well as the vice-president of CAF.

Naciri, who preferred to keep the details of the complaint secret, said he would submit all the details of the "Rades masquerade" to the disciplinary committee within the two football bodies, reports the newspaper Al Massae.

These complaints particularly concern the CAF vice-president, the Nigerian Amaju Melvin Pinnick, who is being prosecuted by the justice system in his country for the embezzlement of the $8.4 million granted by FIFA for the benefit of the Nigerian federation, in addition to the president of the Tunisian federation, Wadii Jarii, and Hamdi Meddeb, president of Espérance de Tunis.

During the return leg of the African Champions League final, adds the daily, the president of Espérance de Tunis had verbally assaulted the president of CAF as well as Said Naciri. The latter had moreover been invited by the vice-president of CAF to finish the match, in exchange for a compromise whose content has not been revealed.
