"We will write to the AIFF asking tor more details on the report sent by their integrity officer (Javed Siraj) that a CFL match between Tollygunge and Rainbow was manipulated," Ganguli told IANS over phone.
FIFA's integrity watchdog, Sportradar, had sent a mail to Siraj sniffing "manipulation" in the game held on August 25. The match ended in favour of Subash Bhowmick-coached Tollygunge 2-1.
"We want to know how to go ahead with the case. We don't know what to tell the two clubs about this. That's why a letter will be sent to AIFF," IFA President and AIFF Senior vice-president Subrata Dutta said.
"We are against any kind of malpractice but we first need more details on this one," he added.
"Let them send the letter, we will take a call then. I can't say anything now," Siraj said when asked about the development.
At present, Tollygunge are on 5th position on the points table with 7 points and four games to go in the league. Rainbow SC are a spot below, trailing by two points but with a lesser game in hand.
