Switzerland's federal prosecutor is about to end its investigation into former FIFA President Sepp Blatter's deals with the Caribbean Football Union (CFU) to sell World Cup broadcasting rights.
ZURICH - Switzerland’s federal prosecutor is about to end its investigation into former FIFA President Sepp Blatter’s deals with the Caribbean Football Union to sell World Cup broadcasting rights.
The Office of the Attorney General said it has informed all the parties of its intention to close the case and was seeking ways to end it. The 84-year-old Swiss, who led FIFA until 2015, was accused of selling TV rights to the CFU for the 2010 and 2014 World Cups for $600,000, seen as far below the market value at the time.
In a second criminal case, Blatter is accused of having arranged a payment of two million Swiss francs to the then UEFA President Michel Platini in February 2011.
