The investigative chamber of FIFA has asked the Ethics Committee to suspend Blatter and Platini for 90 days – The Messenger

Ninety-day suspension for the presidency of FIFA Sepp Blatter. This is what prompted the investigation chamber of the International Football Federation to the trial chamber of the Ethics Committee.

The verdict, expected soon, could end decades after the domain of the former colonel Swiss football world, however that he would resign on February 26 next. Touched by a thousand scandals, shaken by the raid last May a few days before his fifth presidential election, forced to announce his resignation, however, postponing a vote on February 26 when the successor, a fortnight ago, Blatter has been officially investigated by the Attorney General Swiss and now the chickens finally come home to roost.

ppure even today, in an interview with a German magazine, the former colonel announced but refused to make any step back. It is, but at this point we can say was, ready to resist, calling himself a victim of unjust accusations and unsupported by evidence. A bend is coming the verdict of the Ethics Committee which met in Zurich on Monday to evaluate his case and that of Michel Platini, president of UEFA. Just the suspicion payment of two million dollars made in 2001 in favor of the French for its work to FIFA over a decade before it is one of the charges raised by the Swiss courts against the owner of the football world. Platini is only involved as a person informed of the facts and when the Ethics Committee did not rule on the most credible candidate for the presidency of FIFA. Even the French hangs the risk of a suspension that could affect the presidential race Fifa. Blatter continues to proclaim himself a stranger to the accusations. “I was’ condemned without there being any evidence of irregularities on my part. It’s really outrageous, “he said in the interview, released ten days after the eruption of the Swiss investigators to FIFA headquarters in Zurich, with house searches, interrogations and seizures of documents. Investigated for embezzlement and fraudulent management, the five-time FIFA president was infuriated, but also confident to get out again clean. “I will step back only on February 26, not a day before. Until then I will fight for me and for FIFA and I am convinced that sooner or later the bad will come to light and good will prevail. ” Blatter also wants to continue to work to “implement the necessary reforms for the benefit of the federation,” but asks “to be left in peace to work, smettendola with constant attacks.” In the focus of the Ethics Committee is also the presidential candidate Korean Chung Mong-joon, on suspicion of corruption for his support for the candidacy of South Korea to the World Cup 2022. The same goes to the Chung Blatter: “It a hypocrite and a liar, I’m going to sue him for his embezzlement of 100 million dollars, equivalent to the damage that has been inflicted to FIFA. The federation – said Chung – has become a corrupt organization serving the interests of a few. ”
