Rome, April 6, 2016. An Italian court has the Monegasques (formerly Italians) Fulvio Fantoni and Claudio Nunes, together known as Fantunes "because of cheating (see our article of September 14, 2015 ) sentenced to three years suspended personally plus a lifelong ban on playing together as a bridge pair. The prosecutor had demanded lifetime suspension, arguing that a playing career in bridge lasts much longer than in other sports. The ruling, however, is in accordance with guidelines issued by the Italian Olympic Committee, only for a second offense and has lifetime suspension for a first offense to a maximum of three years. Fantoni and Nunes could possibly appeal within twenty days. - See more at: http://www.imp-bridge.nl/nieuws-archief/fantoni-en-nunes-veroordeeld?fb_action_ids=10209421703043273&fb_action_types=og.likes#sthash.vxuITuWK.dpuf
