Confederation of African Football’s (CAF) Judiciary body has written to Benin to provide evidence to back stories attributed to coach Reinhard Fabisch over approaches made to him to fix a match at the African Cup of Nations.
On Thursday, Fabisch revealed details of an approach he received last weekend ahead of Benin's opening game against Mali in Sekondi.
Fabisch is to sign an official affidavit on Saturday about the approach, which he claimed came from a man who claimed to be from a Singapore-based company though he rejected it.
According to CAF’s Communications Director, Habuba Suleiman, the independent judiciary body, will proceed to deal with the matter when the Benin coach sends through an official affidavit.
Habuba Suleiman says the Benin coach is not under an specific deadlines to forward his official affidavit.
Match-fixing revelations have become rife for the first time at the tournament hosted by Ghana as another case has been reported on Saturday.
This time, Namibia say they had been approached to fix a match at the African Nations Cup, having been offered $30,000 per player to throw their final group game against Guinea in Sekondi on Monday.
Namibia Football Association president John Muinjo said he had been told of the offer by his players and had immediately informed the Confederation of African Football (CAF).
