 Dutch referee Rob Dieperink dies weeks after removal from World Cup officiating list Dutch referee Rob Dieperink has died at the age of 38, weeks after FIFA removed him from its list of officials for the World Cup. The Dutch Football Association (KNVB) confirmed his death in a statement, saying it was “shocked and deeply saddened” by the news. His cause of death has not been disclosed. Dieperink was arrested in April by the Metropolitan Police in the United Kingdom following a report of an alleged sexual assault involving a teenage boy in London. A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said officers responded on April 9 to a report of sexual assault at an address in Croydon and arrested a man in his 30s on suspicion of the offence.

50 poisoned at another wedding party after 114 perished during marriage ceremony

No fewer than 50 people were poisoned at a wedding in Iraq’s northern province of Kirkuk due to spoiled food, local media reported.
According to the report, the incident occurred in the town of Hawija, west of Kirkuk, the capital city of the cognominal province.
The provincial health chief, Ziyad Khalaf, said some cases were mild while others were serious.
He added that all the patients have received the necessary medical treatment in the hospital.
The incident came a day after a deadly fire ripped through a wedding hall in a predominantly Christian town in Iraq’s northern province of Nineveh, killing 114 people and injuring more than 200.
No fewer than 114 were killed after fire razed a wedding hall in the Hamdaniya area of Nineveh Province, a Christian-dominated area close to Mosul.
According to VOA, the deadly event happened on Wednesday, and television footage showed fire engulfing the wedding hall, which the civil defence officials said was filled with illegal flammable cladding.
In the aftermath of the fire, only charred metal and debris could be seen as people walked through the scene – the dark hall was only lightened up by television cameras and witnesses’ phones.
“All efforts are being made to provide relief to those affected by the unfortunate accident,” Saif al-Badr, a health ministry spokesman, said on the state-owned Iraqi News Agency. The health department in Nineveh Province pegged death toll figures at 114.
The wounded are being treated with various degrees of injuries at regional hospitals – some survivors arrived at local hospitals, receiving oxygen and bandages, with disrupted family members occupying the hospitals.
Meanwhile, Iraqi authorities warned that the death toll could rise as final figures of casualties have yet to be determined.
No official details have been provided about the cause of the fire outbreak at press time. But initial reports by the Kurdish television news channel Rudaw suggested that fireworks at the venue might have started it.
In a statement released online, Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, Iraq’s prime minister, ordered an investigation into the incident and tasked the officials with the interior and health ministries to provide relief.
