Former world champion Vladimir Kramnik has been suspended by the international governing body for chess for at least a year after he levelled unproven allegations of cheating against fellow players, including Daniel Naroditsky.
Kramnik accused Naroditsky, who died last year at age 29, of cheating last year and continued to share suspicions on social media. Naroditsky, a prodigious chess player and American grandmaster who helped usher in the game’s online boom with educational YouTube videos and livestreams, denied the allegations.
