Okoye could be facing a lengthy football suspension and criminal proceedings

[Paveman]

This is very bad news. The rumours had been circulating for a while but now legal proceedings have been confirmed.

Okoye is suspected of having picked up a yellow card on purpose in the 63rd minute of Lazio - Udinese played on the 11th March last year. Apparently there were high betting patterns (odds were 8 to 1) on this event resulting in wins of 120,000 euros.

Prosecutors (district of Udine and Trieste) will be bringing charges against Okoye and 3 other people who bet on the outcome as the preliminary investigation has now been concluded. It seems prosecutors have a digital connection (not sure if phone or whatsapp etc) between Okoye and one of the arrested persons who made the bet.

Will keep you updated, although I suspect it will soon hit the international news.

The case is an old one, dates back to March 2024, but it seems that criminal charges are going to be issued now.

Well the NFF must support and protect Okoye. Also control the pathetic media full of hungry Nigerian clueless journos looking for a quick buck

Still the most common mistake on Cybereagles.

Everytime I see Paveman opens a thread, like a child on Christmas morning, I scroll down the thread looking for this error.

Me too, but yesterday I got wind that charges would be pressed, it seems they have some pretty hard evidence. Let’s hope it’s not true.

I’m trying to navigate the complicated Italian legal system re criminal cases.

So, what happened is this: the public prosecutor (who has a maximum of 18 months to do so - hence the delay) has found enough evidence of the crime and has therefore accused 4 people (Okoye and 3 other non-footballers) of a crime. This part is called the preliminary investigation, which was concluded earlier this week.

The file is now passed onto a Judge who has a period of 30 days (at times extended to 60 days) to decide to either archive the case (i.e. decide that the evidence is not sufficient to warrant court proceedings - which can be appealed by the prosecutor) or else initiate criminal proceedings, at which point a normal court case would commence.

I’m not sure if/when Serie A can actually take action against Okoye, separately from these proceedings.

Lucas Paqueta of West Ham has a similar case against him in England but he’s being investigated by the English FA rather than the authorities
