“I am deeply disappointed because the American Professional League choose to explain its policy strictly, and that the policy does not allow a different result of sincere mistake in pure intentions,” Partchtein said in a statement.
“Bobby loves to be part of the American Professional League and loves to be a role model and a real ambassador for Pakz and the city of Miluki.
“This was incredibly difficult for him, but he would accept this punishment with grace and turn this into a great opportunity to improve his reputation and his performance more, inside and outside the court.”
