Shakhtyor were also deducted 30 points this
season and 20 next season after the BFF found that club
officials organised match-fixing and offered illegal financial
incentives to other teams in the league.
Two other clubs, Energetik-BGU Minsk who were last season's
runners-up, and Belshina Bobruisk were also handed points
deductions for their involvement in match-fixing.
Bate Borisov will take Shakhtyor's place in the qualifiers for
next season's Champions League, the Belarus state-owned BeITA
news agency reported.
The Belarusian soccer season runs from March to November.
