The Parliament clarified the fate of Taj
The head of the Parliament’s Sports Committee says Mehdi Taj must bid farewell to the Football Federation
Ahmad Rastineh commented on Mehdi Taj’s position as the head of the Football Federation despite all the uncertainties surrounding him, stating that there are two clear and transparent legal paths. One path is for the verdicts on Mehdi Taj’s cases to be issued and, based on the law, similar to how FIFA President Blatter was forced to step down, at the very least, if judicial rulings are issued against Taj, he should be dismissed and removed.
At least in the Article 90 Commission, based on our review, we have reached a consensus that three issues regarding Taj are unavoidable: first, managerial incompetence; second, his inaction concerning legal matters; and third, the violation of national rights and interests, and damaging national pride. We have reached a conclusion on these matters in the Article 90 Commission, and the results will be referred to the judiciary.
