Ahmed Affan
In a shocking turn of events, Abdulla Anwar, the General Secretary of the Handball Association, has been dismissed from his position following serious allegations of fund misappropriation. Reports from Mihaaru Sports indicate that Anwar is accused of improperly taking his salary in advance and misusing substantial sums of the association’s funds over the past nine months.
When contacted for a response regarding the allegations, Anwar declined to comment. The situation has prompted the Handball Association to take swift action, with officials stating that Anwar’s case is currently under review by the disciplinary committee.
An official from the association confirmed, “Once this issue came to light, a decision was made to dismiss him from the position.” Furthermore, they noted that the case has been referred to other relevant authorities for further investigation.
This dismissal comes shortly after the Handball Association celebrated its achievement at the recent Sports Awards, where it was honored with the title of Best Association of the Year. The juxtaposition of this accolade with the current scandal has raised concerns about the governance of the organization.
As the investigation unfolds, the Handball Association aims to ensure transparency and accountability in addressing the allegations against Anwar.
