Durban, South Africa - A South African referee who officiated in the country's Premier Soccer League (PSL) has been convicted of attempted match fixing, South African media reported on Thursday. Enoch Radebe, who was charged with two counts of corruption and also faced two alternative charges of corrupting a sporting event, was convicted by a Durban magistrate of the alternative charge. Radebe was said to have offered the referee and his assistant of a PSL match in April 2004 between Golden Arrows and Ajax 4,000 Rand (430 Euro) to influence the game. Radebe was one of several referees and club officials arrested in 2004 during a match fixing probe. He has been released on 5,000 Rand (533 Euro) bail and is not allowed to leave the Durban municipal area. He will be sentenced on October 18, with the maximum prison sentence for the offence 18 years. © 2006 dpa - Deutsche Presse-Agentur
