Decision 2:
DC-A4(i) says that when an offence is committed by an unidentified athlete, the applicable sanction shall be borne by the team captain. However, this article cannot be applied in this case because the report states that the offence was committed by "an unidentified person from the Valletta bench" and so this unidentified person could have been either a team official or a player (athlete). Therefore, there is no case to answer.

Decision 1:
The Disciplinary Commissioner acting on the report submitted, and in particular the phrase that Lawrence Borg approached Karl Galea in an agressive manner, decides that this was not the case. On the other hand, since B'Buga did not feel the need to file a report about the incidents, no other action can be taken against any other person who was not reported of any wrongdoing.
The deposit paid by B'Buga is to be returned to the club.
Decision 2:
Russell Spiteri's step dad (B'Buga identified Supporter) guilty in terms of DC-C2 and suspended for 1 week from all ASA Activities (7/10-13/10 both days inclusive).

ASA DR31/2021
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.
