In low-level play every now and then a teammate kills a defusing friendly player to boost his own score (defusing the bomb grants 4 points) in the competitive mode. Outside of standard penalties for team-killing, is there any punishment specifically for this practice? If there isn't, killing off team players is beneficial for the backstabber and even "advised" on the last round before halftime.

1I think it's just the standard team killing penalties that apply. In theory if you do this every game you might get reported more, but I don't think anything specific exists for killing somebody to steal the defuse. – Broneironaut Feb 01 '18 at 21:32

Though there is no specific penalty for killing a teammate that is defusing in CS:GO there is a system in place that will kick/ban you for dealing too much damage to teammates. When killing a number of teammates a player will be banned from the game. This ban can be temporary or permanent depending on how many times this person has misbehaved.
In short, no there is not a defuse killing specific penalty in the game.
