After hearing the submissions of both parties and all the witnesses, Mr Sandro Pecorella, the Disciplinary Commissioner concludes as follows:-
Mr Rainer Scerri, after having been escorted from the pool deck by two ASA Officials (Carlo Mifsud and Karl Galea) did not leave the precincts of the pool as he was obliged to do. The fact that Mr Matthew Bonello exited from the stands and walked towards the Reception Area without feeling threatened in any way by the opposing club’s committee members, proves that at no point in time was Mr Rainer Scerri in any personal danger.
From the video evidence produced Mr Rainer Scerri’s unacceptable actions and verbal threats towards Mr Carlo Mifsud outside the Reception/Entrance Door were very clear, so much so that even his Club President, Mr Matthew Bonello, had to restrain him from aggravating his own and his club’s position.
In view of the above, Mr Rainer Scerri is found guilty in terms of DC-B1-13 (O) and fined €240 and suspended for 3 Senior matches. Mr Scerri is also found guilty in terms of DC-B1-18-A (R) and fined a further €190 and suspended for an additional 2 Senior matches.
Since Mr Scerri did not leave the precincts of the pool, these sanctions are doubled in terms of DC-A4.xi. Mr Scerri is therefore fined a total of €860 and suspended for 10 Senior matches.
The Disciplinary Commissioner also finds Rainer Scerri to be a repeat offender in terms of DC-A5 and fines him an additional €100.
The contestation deposit shall be forfeited in favour of the ASA.
