ISL \/ ISMM then donated to CAF, through its representative, President Issa Hayatou, the sum referred to above.<\/p>\n<p>He said \u201cthrough a series of documents attesting to both the reason for this disbursement and also the identity of the beneficiary, CAF has provided evidence and explanations relating to the payment.<\/p>\n<p>But the IOC Executive Board considers \u201cthe documents produced by the beneficiary, established long after the receipt of funds, did not provide assurance that the funds were actually transferred into the accounts of CAF.\u201d It considers \u201dthat personally accepting such a sum of money in these circumstances constitutes a conflict of interest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, CAF insisted that \u201cPresident Hayatou never received the said sum for his personal account and could not, therefore, use it for personal needs. No conflict of interest, therefore, can be charged against him. It is recalled that the general principle of law, which is binding on all, provides that the accused should be given the benefit of doubt.<\/p>\n<p>Camara said in disappointment, \u201cCAF regrets that all documents and evidence provided were not considered, even as its Executive Committee had approved the donation as recorded in its minutes. Rejecting all these documents demonstrate disrespect and a lack of consideration of the IOC towards the Pan-African institution.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Comments are moderated.
