a senior official at the Confederation of African Football (CAF).<\/p>\n<section class=\"consent\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"heading\">CAF removes the president of its judicial bodies<\/h2>\n<p>According to information reported by the Moroccan outlet Al Botola, CAF General Secretary, Congolese official V\u00e9ron Mosengo-Omba, has decided to dismiss Djiboutian Yacin Osman Robleh from his role as president of the judicial bodies, a position he had held for six years.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>The same source indicates that this decision comes in the wake of the controversy sparked by several CAF rulings after the incidents that marred the tournament final hosted in Morocco.<\/p>\n<p>The executive committee of the African body has meanwhile appointed Togolese C\u00e9dric Adjai, currently CAF\u2019s director of legal affairs, as the interim replacement.<\/p>\n<p>This shake-up has caused delays in the publication of several disciplinary decisions related to matches in African competitions, notably the case concerning the match between Al Ahly and AS FAR Rabat in the CAF Champions League.<\/p>\n<section class=\"consent\"\/><\/div>\n<p><a
