EBL Investigation Committee

1108

The EBL has received formal requests from several NBOs to investigate the allegations of cheating by two partnerships that have recently been published and supported by prima facie evidence.

EBL President, Yves Aubry, has nominated Executive Committee members Eric Laurant and Jan Kamras, Disciplinary Committee member Jean Paul Meyer, together with a panel of expert players (who will be nominated shortly) to an Investigation Committee.

The Investigation Committee shall collect all available evidence, present the evidence to the partnerships involved, giving them the opportunity to respond and present their own exculpatory evidence, evaluate all such evidence to arrive at an opinion on culpability, and present those findings to the Executive Committee and, if necessary, to the Disciplinary Committee.
