The interference resulted control on Fifa house and PFF accounts and because of this FIFA suspended PFF.
The Lahore High court has given the decision in favor of Faisal Saleh Hayat and ordered government and PSB to not to interfere in the PFF affairs and hand over the clean control on 27thFebruary, after two days of dialogue with the Administrator the control of FIFA football house now shifted to Fiasal Saleh Hayat led body who declared the court right party and the PFF polls of June 2015.
