In recent times, the emergence of manipulation of sports competitions is evident, as noticed by several research and studies, as well as cases that are publicly known. Although the manipulation of sporting events goes back a long way, with the newly developed circumstances and the emergence of undesirable effects on sporting events, the Council of Europe and other major international organizations have adopted some important legal acts to combat the manipulation of sporting competitions, the most recent being the Council of Europe Convention on the manipulation of sports competitions CETS no. 215 effective since September 1, 2019. The identification of the problem certainly lies in defining it, which is, the procedure in which one person or team competes against another, and deliberately or unnaturally changes the results, to achieve an inappropriate advantage for themselves or some other stakeholders. The essence of the Council of Europe Convention on the manipulation of sports competitions is exactly in prevention of those events. The commercialization of sports and extensive media coverage has led to an increase in financial stakes in the achievement of certain sporting outcomes, which has also led to an increase in the perpetration of unlawful acts of this kind, as evident from the report of the Interpol Match-Fixing Task Force. In this context, the text of this Convention together with many recommendations, such as the KCOOS Guide to Understanding and Combating Manipulation, Fifa’s Special Recommendations of 2014, the activities of the Interpol Match-Fixing Task Force on the Prevention of Manipulation of Sports (IMFTF), etc. ., is certainly a significant step forward in maximizing the prevention of manipulation of sports competitions.
