Namely, a shot of the spear throw caused suspicion that Vedran Samac didn't break the national record, but that the judges performed a one of a kind scam.
- It was obvious that there were irregularities. The Athletic Federation received this video first and we immediately released it into media. We formed a commision and according to AFS rules, the referees were immediately suspended. They will hardly ever have the opportunity to be on any competition - Jevrosimovic told Tanjug and added:
- We are waiting for the statements of all actors and we will then make a decision about the record and whether it will be annulled. This is also a message to everybody that we will not tolerate this kind of behavior and I can say that whoever participated in a potential scam to GET OUT OF ATHLETICS.
There is no room for cheating in the queen of sports. And that should be explained loudly.
- We will make it very clear that our sport is not a place where these things will happen. Whoever thinks differently, the message is clear - Get out of Athletics - the first man of Serbian athletics Veselin Jevrosimovic stressed once again.
