Carsten
Hensel Press Release about Decision of the new Appeals Committee
Gentlemen,
FIDE published the decision (http://www.fide.com/default.asp?curpage=1&x=0.3421747)
to Vladimir Kramniks appeal due to formal reasons.
Vladimir Kramnik will continue the match subject to the
condition to clarify his rights regarding game 5.
Due to the facts that
a) FIDE breached the contract,
b) an illegal protest of Mr. Topalov has been approved by
the former FIDE Appeals Committee (this decision was already final and confirmed
by the FIDE President in writing),
c) Game 5 should have never been started under these conditions
Mr. Kramnik will follow the strong advise from his lawyers
to sue FIDE after this match has been concluded.
Best regards,
Carsten Hensel
(Manager to Vladimir Kramnik, Classical World Chess Champion)
