 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. Police later said that after reviewing available evidence, including CCTV footage and digital devices, the investigation had concluded that “the evidential threshold had not been met” and no further action would be taken.

 Cameroon's Paul Biya: World's oldest president sworn in for 8th term


Paul Biya, who has been president of Cameroon for 43 years, was sworn in on Thursday for an eighth term, after a contested election that sparked mass protests in which several demonstrators died.


The 92-year-old Biya, the world's oldest head of state, won the October 12 with 53.7 percent of the vote, according to official results, against 35.2 percent for his main challenger, former government minister Issa Tchiroma Bakary.


He was sworn in at a ceremony in parliament in the capital, Yaounde, for a new seven-year term at the helm of the central African country.


"I will spare no effort to continue to be worthy of this trust," Biya told the gathering attended by local political figures but no foreign leaders.


"I fully understand the gravity of the situation our country is going through. I understand the number and severity of the challenges we face and I understand the depth of frustrations and the scale of expectations," he continued.


Closely fought election


Tchiroma, a former Biya ally turned opposition figure, stirred enthusiasm among young voters and continues to insist he is the true winner of the election, which was closer than expected.


Several people are reported to have died when security forces quashed opposition rallies just before and after Biya's win was announced on October 27.


Tchiroma has since urged supporters to stage "dead city" operations, closing shops and halting other public activities.


The response has been mixed, with the call being widely followed in Garoua and Douala but in Yaounde most shops remained open, children were at school and employees went to work.


Tchiroma had been confined to his home in Garoua after the results were announced, but on Tuesday, one of his spokespeople told AFP that he was "on the move."


Charges against Tchiroma


The government has said it plans to initiate legal proceedings against the opposition leader, denouncing his "repeated calls for insurrection."


It has acknowledged that people died in the unrest but has not provided a toll.
