Punishment reasonable and well-deserved, says Norza


PETALING JAYA: The Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) believe shuttlers Zulfadli Zulkiffli and Tan Chun Seang have been dealt a fair and reasonable punishment for their involvement in match-fixing.

The Badminton World Federation (BWF)’s Ethics Hearing Panel slapped Zulfadli with a 20-year suspension from all badminton activities while Chun Seang was banned for 15 years for match-fixing offences between 2013 and 2016. They were also hit with a US$25,000 (RM98,000) and US$15,000 (RM59,000) fine respectively.
