LAHORE: The International Kabaddi Federation (IKF) on Tuesday declared India’s win in the Kabaddi World Cup 2014 against Pakistan illegal.
Devraj Chaturvedi, IKF Chief Executive Officer (CEO) dissolved the victory of India, saying that the tournament could not be called a World Cup as international rules were not implemented in the tournament.
He added that a World Cup would be conducted in the coming year. Chaturvedi said that unbiased referees adjudicate big events whereas there were Indian referees in the final.
Earlier, the final match of the Kabaddi World Cup 2014 became controversial when Indian referees gave biased judgement in favour of their homeland upon which Pakistan referred the matter to the IKF after refusing to accept India’s win in the match.
