FIFA does not tolerate any political interference in the affairs of football. And does not intend to depart from its guideline.

According to L’Equipe, the world football body sent a letter to the South African government to summon waives for a judicial inquiry into match-fixing and let stand the local federation (SAFA) and the sporting justice.

The South African Minister of Sport said that the investigation is in progress on a request from the local Olympic committee. Gert Oosthuizen, decided to visit the headquarters of FIFA (Zurich) to explain.

Several members of the Federation including the president had been suspended for a few weeks following suspicions of match fixing of the Bafana Bafana before the 2010 World Cup.
