King Kong sent home

HIROSHIMA, Japan (AFP): Malaysia's Asian Games soccer team is
to send home defender Chong King Kong to be questioned over the
country's growing match-fixing scandal.

Prince Abdullah Ahmad Shah, team leader and Malaysian Football
Association vice-president, confirmed that Chong would leave
Hiroshima on Friday.

Malaysian police had planned to wait until after the
tournament to question the Penang player about payments to throw
matches. "There is no point having this player around. He is
wanted by the police," said the prince, who highlighted the
damage that could be caused to team morale.
