On 6 November 2015, Timor Leste's Technical director Orlando Marques Henriques Mendes and former international player Moisés Natalino De Jesus were sentenced to 24 months and 20 months imprisonment respectively for offences related to football match-fixing activities. A Singaporean match-fixer Rajendran R Kurusamy had agreed to pay S$15k should Timor Leste to lose their opening game against Malaysia. Rajendran and Indonesian accomplice Nasiruddin pleaded guilty as well and were sentenced to 48 and 30 months’ jail respectively.
