Cricket body sends strong message after CEO is suspended for a year by SportSG
Singapore Cricket Association chief executive Saad Khan Janjua has been handed a one-year suspension from coaching by Sport Singapore’s (SportSG) Safe Sport Commission, effective from Sept 15.
The commission’s disciplinary database, which is available on its website, stated that from Sept 15, Janjua is suspended “from role of coach for one year and subject to fulfilling requirement for full NROC (National Registry of Coaches) membership”, adding that he is also “suspended from role as sport administrator, subject to completion of educational intervention”.
The sanction is meted out by the commission’s independent disciplinary panel, which handles moderate to severe cases of misconduct for member organisations under the Safe Sport programme.
In response to queries from The Straits Times, the commission confirmed in a media statement on Sept 20 that Janjua has been given a one-year coaching ban. He is also barred from having any influence over the coaching of athletes selected for December’s SEA Games in Thailand.
It added that it received “reports of concern in August 2024 which were assessed to be a potential breach of the Safe Sport Unified Code”.
ST understands that Safe Sport acted after it received complaints from players who detailed verbal abuse directed at them.
