King Faisal Application for Stay of Execution Dismissed by GFA Disciplinary Committee

On March 17, 2015, King Faisal applied to the Disciplinary Committee for a Stay of Execution pending the outcome of its appeal filed on March 17, 2017 at the Appeals Committee of the Ghana Football Association to overturn the Decision in the Protest Case (Cape Coast Mysterious Dwarfs FC vrs. King Faisal FC) delivered by the Disciplinary Committee on March 10, 2015.

However in its findings, the Disciplinary Committee stated:
1. that King Faisal did not make the Application by a Motion but rather by an Affidavit

2. that there were no grounds set out on the affidavit to support the application but rather reference is made to the grounds set out in the appeal which is not before this Committee.

The relevant regulations on stay of execution are Articles 37(17)(a), 37(17)(b) and 37(17)(c) of the General Regulations of the GFA.
