“I am very disappointed and saddened by information in the public domain concerning the indecent treatment of women in sports, especially in basketball. It is my expectation that the necessary investigations will be conducted and concluded speedily.
“We are proud of our female athletes and officials who have worked tirelessly to secure the future of sports for women and girls, increasing the number of women teams and individuals participating in regional and international competitions,” CS Mohamed said in a statement on Friday.
The Sports CS appointed a nine-member committee to oversee female athletes’ welfare and the representation of women in federation technical teams.
