KAIZER Chiefs have pleaded guilty for naming two ineligible players in their squad in a DStv Premiership match against Sekhukhune United.
The players in question, Aiden McCarthy and Mduduzi Shabalala, were not properly registered by Chiefs but were named in the squad.
Even though the pair did not feature in the fixture, Chiefs still find themselves in hot water.
Both McCarthy and Shabalala were fined R10 000, which was suspended wholly.
Amakhosi were fined a monitory amount of R200 000, 50 percent of which is suspended for a period of 12 months on conditions that during the period of suspension, they are not found guilty of the same offence.
PSL prosecutor Zola Majavu issued an update on the matter on Friday.
"With regards to the second and third respondents, which are the players, they were both fined a monitory amount R10 000, which whole amount is suspended for a period of 12 months on condition that during the period of suspension, they are not found guilty of the same offence,” said Majavu.
"Kaizer Chiefs were further ordered to pay the cost of the two sittings, which cost would be administratively completed by the league and forwarded to the responded for onward payment."
