The club was penalised for recklessness and violating preventive guidelines. “The leader of your team has been negligent in the implementation of the Covid-19 containment guidelines,” Ferwafa wrote to Amagaju on Wednesday, informing the club of their removal from the playoffs. Times Sport understands that one player Evariste Murindwa joined the team late, and is said to have been the source of coronavirus spread in the camp.
