Chess champ who hid phone in bathroom stall temporarily banned from game

From PennLive:

A chess grandmaster (GM) admitted to cheating last year during a championship tournament. This grandmaster has now been temporarily banned from competing in the game as a result of his actions.

Chess.com reports how Kirill Shevchenko — who became a GM at just 14 years old and who is currently ranked 75th in the world — received a three-year global ban with one year suspended due to the cheating scandal.

What do you think of this decision to ban the GM for cheating?

It seems a 3-year sentence is light, given he was literally caught red handed cheating during a match. How will he ever be trust again? What was the logic in giving him just a three year ban for something this egregious?
