The Ticino club from the Challenge League was punished for a "breach of the duty to provide information". Bellinzona had failed to submit confirmation of the payment of social security contributions for the month of September by the end of October, despite being granted a grace period.
With the confirmation by the Court of Appeal, the decision is final. AC Bellinzona retain their 7th place, but with 18 points they are now level on points with Stade Nyonnais and only two points ahead of bottom club Schaffhausen.
