The government is committed to fight all types of corruption or external influence in sport, it said in a statement.
It said a Bill on preventing corruption in sports, which is expected to replace that which has been in place since 1976 and which is now considered outdated, should be moved in Parliament soon.
Consultation on the Bill has been going on since August.
The new law would redefine corruption in sports to include corruption for illegal gains from bets on sport results, widen the jurisdiction of local courts and increase fines.
