Fees are going to go up. This is going to be costly
Re: Kasparov Banned by FIDE - Ianbrownlee - 22-10-2015
whats the background to this and why are fees going up?

It has to do with the way that the election campaign was conducted.
There was an alleged promise of money being transferred on condition of a guarantee of votes.
I assume increased fees will result if a court case in CAS has to be defended.
