Warriors coach Zdravko Logarusic is said to have found a dead bat on the field his side was expected to play a 2021 Chan match against the Indomitable Lions on Saturday.
Logarusic posted a photo on Saturday of the carcass of the bat on the field accusing the hosts of witchcraft.
Initially, Caf was mum on the incident but is reportedly investigating the matter after Warriors lodged an official complaint.
The Indomitable Lions beat Zimbabwe 1-0 in the opening game of the Chan tournament with an acrobatic goal from Salomon Banga Bindjeme to hand the home side three points in the game.
