Ahmed was charged with offences under the Code and provisionally suspended by the ICC on November 4, 2015. 

This followed an investigation carried out by the ICC’s Anti-Corruption Unit (ACU), relating in part to the activities of another individual known to the ACU and suspected of making corrupt approaches to participants.  

Whilst Ahmed was not charged with any offence involving corruption, the ACU established that he had failed to disclose to it full details of approaches or invitations to engage in corrupt conduct that had been made to him between January 2012 and January 2014.
