Mark Allen has been fined £10,000 and given a three-month suspended ban for accusing China's Cao Yupeng of cheating at the World Championship.

The Northern Irishman claimed Cao failed to declare an illegal push shot during a 10-6 first-round defeat.

Allen later apologised for his comments and will now be obliged to undergo media training.

World Snooker said the ban would only come into effect if Allen made any new breach of rules in the next six months.

His latest punishment follows a previous case in March where he was fined £1,000 and warned as to his future conduct for comments he made about China and the Chinese people on Twitter.

He was also fined £250 in January for swearing in a press conference at the UK Championship in December last year.

A World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association statement said: "The WPBSA disciplinary committee consider that this behaviour is unacceptable and offensive to China and the Chinese players. Such behaviour will not be tolerated by the WPBSA."

Allen was also ordered to pay £1,000 towards the cost of the hearing.

The lesson is: Don't say what you think, because opinions and free speech is dangerous.

You compared 2 completely different players from different sports and twisted the situation around to "win". It didn't work. Allen may not be a model player but his in play conduct is generally sound, unlike Murray (who screams and shouts every point). Wrong section anyway. A bit sad you would come all way over here to try to score points haha

and to troll Craig, another boring Anti Ronnie poster, Ronnie's conduct on table is again generally perfect. He always congratulates his opponent properly too. Comparing these 2 to a screaming lunatic like Murray does you no favours.

Laugh Oh please. I take it you conveniently choose to forget head-butting referees, sexual gestures with microphones, the annual 'I quit' announcements, the walking out on matches (V Hendry) mid-flight, the wish to play the world championships in prison, the spiteful comments to Hendry etc etc etc.

Allen was a little bit silly to be honest. I love that he is open and honest and speaks his mind but he really should have chosen better words.

Mark Allen loves causing trouble. Where's this new "bad boy" (I hate that expression) image come from?
