code in a World Cup qualifying game between South Africa and Senegal on

FIFA said in a statement: “The official was found guilty of unlawfully influencing match results.”
FIFA announced that it would be dismissing allegations
against another Ghanaian match official David Lionheart Nii Lartey Laryea, who
had also been under investigation.

the decision becomes final and binding.

“FIFA will continue

initiatives, which include the monitoring of international betting and a
confidential reporting system with a dedicated integrity hotline and e-mail
