Controversy

[edit]

Istiklol was founded[52] and is said to be owned by Rustam Emomali, the son and heir apparent of the President of Tajikistan, Emomali Rahmon,[53] who also served captain of the team until 2012. On 14 June 2011, a Istiklol victory after a disputed play was awarded to them by referees led to violent riots that saw 16 people injured and at least 20 arrested.[53] In 2012, five players of rival team Ravshan Kulob were sanctioned with suspensions or fines for "unruly behavior" after defeating Istiklol 1-0.[52]
