World Rugby bosses to meet following Bernard Laporte development
By PA
World Rugby bosses were set to convene for an emergency session on Tuesday after the governing body’s vice-chairman Bernard Laporte was handed a two-year suspended prison sentence on corruption charges.
Laporte, who was also the president of French rugby, has also been banned from holding any post in rugby union for two years, although that is currently suspended, pending an appeal.
“World Rugby notes the decision of the French court to sentence Federation Francaise de Rugby (FFR) president and World Rugby vice-chairman Bernard Laporte on corruption charges which relate to domestic matters,” World Rugby said in a statement.
“The World Rugby executive committee will convene tonight to determine the next steps in accordance with the international federation’s Integrity Code. A further update will be made following the meeting.”
French newspaper L’Equipe reported that Paris Criminal Court also fined Laporte 75,000 euros (£64,000) for passive corruption, influence peddling, illegal taking of interests, concealment of misuse of corporate assets and abuse of corporate assets.
It involved Laporte’s relationship with Mohed Altrad, a billionaire businessman who owns French champions Montpellier.

Go to commentsMzil, I only recently learned Hodgman was only 31 myself, so you’re certainly not alone there!
Canham is a good shout, and he’s coming along nicely in new colours - as is Darcy Swain for that matter.
Whether Gleeson and Hooper feature this year, without a return date confirmed (despite best intentions) remains to be seen. Different to Ikitau, in that we know he’ll return after the Exeter stint and for how long.
And Tizzano will certainly be there. I didn’t need to include him here, but he’s just no longer a fringe player!
