The Pechersky District Court of Kyiv decided to extend the removal of Andriy Pavelko from the post of President of the Ukrainian Football Association (UAF) until July 9.

It is reported by Football Hub.

This decision is immediately enforceable but can be appealed within five days..

At the same time, Pavelko’s lawyer during the meeting said that his client had signed an order appointing Oleg Protasov, first vice-president of the organization, as acting head of the UAF.

This is the third court decision to remove the president of the UAF. The previous two are pending before the Court of Appeal..

Recall that the current president of the UAF, Andrei Pavelko, and the organization’s general secretary, Yuriy Zapisotsky, are defendants in a corruption case.. In November last year, both were sentenced to two months in prison, after which two bails were posted for them in the amount of almost 20 million hryvnias..
