Jamil was helpless?

Under-fire general secretary of Bangladesh Hockey Federation (BHF) Khandaker Jamiluddin has tendered his resignation to BHF president Air Marshal SM Ziaur Rahman taking all the responsibility for the farce of a final match on Friday that was played and decided in dubious circumstances.
This move came as no surprise since most of the responsibility fell on him as the chief of the federation's executive body. His deputy Anvir Adel had resigned from his post as tournament and league committee secretary before the delayed start of the game, and said that it was tough for him to work in the situation.
However, none of the resignation letters were entertained and both of them attended the governing body meeting last evening which discussed this issue and the upcoming Asian Games qualifying round matches which are scheduled for May 7 to 15.
Jamiluddin later explained to the media his view of the things and explained why he resigned.
"I have decided to step down from the position of general secretary of BHF taking full responsibility for whatever happened yesterday (Friday)," said Jamil while talking to reporters in the evening.
"Whatever happened in my presence has annihilated my credentials to remain the general secretary of the federation, both from legal and moral point of view," he added.
Showing his regrets to Usha, Jamil claimed that Mohammedan Sporting Club had acted like 'hooligans' by fielding an unregistered player and questioned how Mohammedan could have not received the by-laws with their councillor Tarikuzzaman Nannu being the secretary of the by-laws committee.
The tournament committee secretary Anvir Adel has informed that a league committee meeting will be held soon which will take a decision as to whether the awarding of the tournament to Mohammedan holds or should Usha be declared champions, regarding the by-laws of the tournament.
Khandaker Jamiluddin has once again cited the presence of chief guest Finanance Minister Abul Maal Abdul Muhith as the reason for getting on with the game.
"I was turned into a mere spectator to whatever happened for the presence of the minister. If we had postponed the match, I feared we might have come under the cosh.
"Moreover, there is the Asian Games qualifying matches coming up next month. We might have lost the validity of such a big event had we left this tournament unfinished," said Jamil.
But now it seems those fears have heavily backfired since the incidents of Friday have posed a huge question mark on the proficiency, work ethic and mettle of the federation officials on the start of a season which had promised to bring hockey back to the field.
