According to a letter obtained by local media on Wednesday, FIFA requested clarifications from the Tunisian Federation for the Game over any potential government meddling in its internal affairs.
The FIFA correspondent, which was signed by Kenny John Mary, the head of the “Member Federations” division, indicated that he had discovered what appeared to be a desire on the part of the authorities to meddle in the business of the Football Association and plans to resolve the executive office.
We would like to remind you that the International Football Association’s member federations are required to conduct their business independently and without interference.
” She added that violating these rules can lead to penalties according to FIFA regulations, including deleting the membership of the union concerned.
FIFA requested clarifications and more information from the Tunisian Federation in writing within a time frame not to exceed Friday, October 28.
Several months ago, there was a state of tense between the Tunisian Ministry of Sports and the Football Association. Minister Kamal Daqish launched strong statements and threats towards the union, alleging that he had broken the law and threatened him for maintaining civil peace as a result of the frequent street protests of the populace.
The authority may intervene to dissolve the union office, which might potentially endanger Tunisia’s “FIFA” departure from the World Cup Finals in Qatar, 2022, according to reports in local and international media, although Dikish disputed that such a step was ever intended.
