Racism claim by Idi Amin’s grandson groundless, says Commonwealth chief

Ugandan boxer criticised referee after disqualification

Chief executive Sadleir defends TNT Sports coverage

Commonwealth Sport chiefs have dismissed Idi Amin’s grandson’s claims of corruption and racism after he was disqualified for a head-butt in the super-heavyweight boxing.

Aziz Abdul lashed out at the decision by the Argentinian referee, Manuel Vilarino, after losing his quarter-final fight to England’s Damar Thomas. It came after he was correctly docked a point for a standing count in the first round, another for repeatedly punching on the break, and then disqualified for a blatant butt.
