SKorea vows 'no mercy' against match-fixing


South Korea's Yonhap news agency reports that Culture Minister Choe Kwang-shik is vowing to show "no mercy." Choe reportedly says there will be a zero-tolerance policy on match-fixing and that professional clubs will be responsible for protecting players from corruption. Last year, South Korea s football league was hit by a huge match-fixing scandal, with nearly 80 players and brokers convicted. South Korea s volleyball association has announced the banning of four players for life over alleged match-fixing. Recent media reports say a broker told prosecutors that match-fixing had also taken place in baseball.
