AIK Hockey Fined Again After Fans Breach Ban on Banners and Flags

The fine is set at 50,000 kronor (about $4,800), according to the Swedish Ice Hockey Association’s disciplinary committee.

In April, the Swedish Ice Hockey Association’s competition committee decided to ban fan merchandise at AIK’s first five home games of the season. Fans breached the ban at the first two home games, and on October 2 AIK was fined 75,000 kronor (about $7,100) by the disciplinary committee.

Now the case concerns the next two home games.

“AIK Hockey has not taken any action to ensure that the decision could be complied with. In such circumstances, the disciplinary committee believes that AIK Hockey has failed to comply with the competition committee’s decision,” the disciplinary committee writes in its decision.
