Who was banned for life by the Pakistan Athletics Federation in October 2025 for violating the Punjab Athletics Association’s constitution?
Salman IqbalSalman Iqbal, the long-serving coach of javelin thrower Arshad Nadeem, received a life ban from the Pakistan Amateur Athletics Federation (PAAF) on October 10, 2025. The ban stemmed from his alleged violation of the Punjab Athletics Association’s constitution by conducting unauthorized elections in August. An inquiry committee formed in mid-September recommended the ban after reviewing his response to the Pakistan Sports Board (PSB). The decision appears linked to Iqbal’s sharp reply to PSB’s queries about Nadeem’s performance at the World Athletics Championship and training expenses. As a result, Iqbal is barred from any athletics-related activities, coaching, or holding office at any level.
