The Fiji Football Association will tomorrow set up an Independent Committee to investigate the match-fixing allegations made by the Vodafone Labasa soccer President Avinesh Kumar after the side's loss to Navua in the Fiji Bitter Fact final.

Association President Doctor Samsud Dean Sahu Khan confirmed that they won't let the matter rest so easily and they will do their best to establish the truth.

Sahu Khan said three people from outside the soccer fraternity will be appointed tomorrow to investigate the serious allegations and if found guilty of match-fixing or bribery then those soccer officials and players may even face expulsion from Fiji soccer.

Labasa soccer president Avinesh Kumar said that three of their players were bribed before the Fiji Fact final to lose against Navua.
