Former Labasa soccer president Abinesh Kumar has denied allegations by the Fiji FA that $30,000 is missing from the Labasa Football Association account.

Speaking from Australia, Kumar said the alleged amount is said to be from the release of players from Navua and Lautoka.

Kumar said Navua soccer was to pay $12,500 for the release of Joseph Nimiriau however Labasa FA and Navua FA had a contra for release of Nimiriau in June.

According to Kumar, Suva soccer still owes Labasa FA a total of $18,000 for the release of defender Apisalome Turuva.

Kumar also added that Labasa Football Association only released Samuela Kautoga to play for Lautoka and alleged that it was the Fiji FA President Doctor Samsud Dean Sahu Khan who gave the release for free and the case is still with Arbitration.

He said everything is in the account, which have been audited by the Fiji FA accountants and whatever the Fiji FA officials are claiming after the special meeting on Sunday in Labasa, is a lie.

Kumar said he will be taking the people concerned to court, if they cannot substantiate their claims with evidence.

Yesterday, Dr Sahu Khan revealed that the Fiji FA will soon appoint an interim administration to run the affairs of Labasa soccer as they intend to refer the matter of the missing funds to the police for investigations.
