New Delhi-Sana
Today, the International Amateur Boxing Federation withdrew the organization of the 2021 Men's World Championship from New Delhi and the site in 2017 and awarded it to Belgrade due to India's failure to pay stipulated financial obligations.
Reuters quoted the union as saying in a statement that India should pay a cancellation fine of $ 500,000.
For his part, the Indian Boxing Federation said that a problem in the account of the International Banking Union in Lausanne led to the postponement of payment of financial payments and that the International Federation acted without consulting any party, indicating that it seeks to reach an amicable solution with the International Federation and expressed its confidence in canceling the fine.
The International Olympic Committee decided last year to suspend the International Amateur Boxing Association due to financial and administrative irregularities.
Mohamed Moustasane, interim president of the International Boxing Association, said the plan was to keep the original dates and set up the championship after the Tokyo Olympics 2021 if global conditions allowed the Covid epidemic 19.
"I trust that Serbia will be proud to host the championship in Belgrade ... Serbia has all the capabilities to organize a great championship for athletes, coaches, officials and boxing lovers," Mstassin said. ”
