European Wushu And Kungfu Federation (EWUF) stängs tillsvidare av som Europas officiella organ för wushu. Det har länge pågått stridigheter inom och utanför EWUF, och funnits många oklarheter i EWUFs agerande och verksamhet. Nu har IWUFs etiska kommitté granskat EWUF och stängt av dom tillsvidare i avvaktan på en full utredning.
”On 15th April 2021, the IWUF Executive Board has decided, in accordance with Art. J.3
of the IWUF Code of Ethics and Art. 36 of the IWUF Constitution, to impose the following
provisional measures on the EWUF effective immediately:
- The recognition of EWUF as Continental Federation for the European Continent
in the meaning of Art. 4.1 of the IWUF Constitution is provisionally suspended; - The provisional suspension of the recognition of EWUF as Continental Federation
shall not prohibit any European IWUF member nor any European athlete to
continue to be a member of IWUF and/or continue to participate at any
competition supported, approved or organized by IWUF and/or its members.2 - Upon request by the IWUF Ethics Committee, the EWUF must provide any
information which the IWUF Ethics Committee considers may be relevant to
investigate the complaints, including but not limited to bank account details,
itemised telephone bills, bank statements, internet service records, computers,
hard drives and other electronic information storage devices and / or a statement
setting out the relevant facts and circumstances around the complaint/s. Where
bank records and statements are, for whatever reason, unavailable the EWUF
shall provide an appropriate authorization to enable the Ethics Committee to
obtain such records as required directly from the banking institution concerned. - A final decision on the recognition of EWUF as Continental Federation for the
European Continent in the meaning of Art. 4.1 of the IWUF Constitution shall be
taken by the IWUF Executive Board once the IWUF Ethics Committee has
completed its investigation and submitted to the IWUF Executive Board its Final
Report on the matter.”
