Umpire Juan Gabriel Castro, from the Dominican Republic, has been suspended for six years for breaches of anti-corruption protocols after manipulating scoring during matches, the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) said on Monday.
In a statement, the ITIA added that Castro had been "fined $6,000 following 12 breaches of the Tennis Anti-Corruption Program (TACP)".
"Castro, a national-level official, did not respond to the ITIA's notice of charge, which related to three matches, in which the official was alleged to have manipulated scoring entry to contrive the scorecard and facilitate corruption," the ITIA said.
"Castro has been provisionally suspended since November 7 2024, as such, their suspension will end on November 6 2030."
