Accurate Fixed Matches
SINGAPORE – Former national footballer K. Kannan has made an appeal to the Football Association of Singapore (FAS) to have his lifetime ban from football activities lifted.
The 59-year-old was jailed and fined in 1995 for football-related corruption.
Last Friday (Aug 13), he submitted a written appeal to the FAS through his lawyers from Eugene Thuraisingam LLP. This is his fifth attempt after previous appeals to the FAS and Asian Football Confederation from 1995 to 2002 were rejected.
Kannan said: “I’m happy that there are people who still think of me and who care for me Accurate Fixed Matches.
“I’m already quite old and my best days in football are over. I’ve made a mistake and have paid for it very dearly and I just want to move on with my life.”
Former journalist and ex-opposition politician Jose Raymond had assembled the legal team to help Kannan’s appeal after a friend told him about a letter that the former player had received from the FAS in August last year.
