BREAKING NEWS FROM FIFA - BREAKING NEWS FROM FIF

6 FIFA officials arrested on suspected corruption charges, face extradition to US


A major Swiss operation carried out an early morning raid on senior FIFA officials staying at a Zurich hotel. They’re facing corruption charges and may be extradited to the United States.
The organization’s officials reportedly stand accused of making World Cup bids, arranging broadcaster and marketing deals, as well as wire fraud, racketeering and money laundering.
An official statement by the Swiss Federal Office of Justice said the six have received millions of dollars over the years for crimes set up and organized from the US, with American banks involved in the payments. The FOJ’s investigation goes all the way back to the early 1990s.
