Where does "Betting Corruption" start and finish in Sport ?
The answer is clear ! In the pockets of all those who participate in the swindle ! The aim is to falsify in advance what a player should do normally. The player is "paid" to ensure an unexpected act or an unexpected result of a match !
"Betting Syndicates" are usually located in countries where it is difficult to reach them legally ! They escape prosecution and imprisonment !
Sportsmen are often generously paid for their normal services, but are sometimes seduced by lucrative offers "not to perform", "to make mistakes", for an immediate financial gain ! They hope to "get away" with impunity !
This typifies what all individual Sports face when there is corruption ! There is also the additional problem of the public outcry when a well known Sportsman is "suspected".
There can only be one "Law" ! He who is guilty must be banned for life, but from all sports ! The world governing body of each Major Sport must clearly specify this in its rules.
Later, on a World basis, all the rules and legal criminal consequents for "Betting" and "Drug Use" and Corruption at all levels in Sport, could be consolidated and become a World Charter.
At present such an objective is still far away !
