This includes actions like punching, striking with the arm, elbow, or shoulder.

Koroiduadua is also accused under the same law, specifically for striking with the head.

Their cases will be reviewed by the SANZAAR Foul Play Review Committee tonight through video-conference.

All disciplinary matters in SANZAAR are first referred to this committee, which allows for a quicker judicial process.

If the accused pleads guilty and accepts the penalty offered by the committee, the matter can be resolved during this hearing.
