A restraining order has been placed on the Salvador do Mundo Panchayat by the Principal District Judge, Panaji in regards to their activities on the first team's practice ground, FC Goa said in a statement.

The Panchayat had earlier this year indulged in an act of premeditated vandalism at the Salvador do Mundo Village Panchayat ground, when the football pitch was desecrated as the turf was dug up and later filled with concrete by the newly elected members of the Salvador do Mundo Panchayat.

 

In an order passed by the Principal District Judge, North Goa on December 22, the Panchayat has been “restrained for causing any further damage to ground one together with infrastructure’.

The Panchayat has been given time till January 15, 2022, to reply to the matter. 

Following the act of vandalism, FC Goa had temporarily moved its first team activities away from the ground, fearing a possible breach in bio-bubble protocols. 

The Gaurs’ First Team returned to the Salvador Do Mundo Panchayat Ground in the first week of December after assurances of police protection were put in place should the need arise to protect against a bio bubble breach.
