Two International judges have been suspended for partisan judging.
Two FIG judges have been suspended from three and six months in FIG and international competitions for having favored a gymnast. These judges are from Azerbaijan and Italy. Other three judges have been also warned.
“Any judge who fails to act in this manner damages the image of Gymnastics both in the eyes of the public and, also importantly, in the eyes of the gymnasts, coaches and other judges upon whose continuing participation the sport of Gymnastics and therefore the future of the FIG itself is dependent.”
This judges work at several competitions, including Youth Olympic Games and World Championships in Izmir. FIG has already pronounced sanctions against them.

These World Championships are extremely important as it is the first qualifying stage for the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. Individuals who ranked 1st to 15th earn the right for their Federation to send a gymnast to Olympic Games. There is a maximum of 2 places per country. Gymnasts placing 16th through to 38th are invited to compete at the test event (PreOlympic) in Rio in April 2016 where the top 6 will qualify for the Olympics. Up to three additional gymnasts could go to Rio if they hail from continents who have not already qualified a gymnast to the Olympic Games. Groups ranking 1st to 10th in the all-around will advance automatically to Rio. Places 11 to 16 will have to compete in the test event where the top three groups will also get a ticket to the Games.
