Zurich, Nov 1 (IBNS) The FIFA Emergency Committee decided on Friday in consultation with the AFC, to extend the mandate of the normalisation committee of the Football Association of Maldives (FAM) until Dec 31, so as to enable FAM to complete the registration process of its statutes with the authorities and organise the elective congress, which had originally been scheduled for Oct 22 and had to be postponed.
