There is no smoke without fire, an old saying that
may well be placed in the new case of FIFA President Gianni Infantino
Indeed, the justice in Switzerland has triggered
criminal proceedings against the president of FIFA following the decision of
the extraordinary federal prosecutor investigating the relationship between the
chief prosecutor in Switzerland, Michael Lauber and the president of FIFA.
The extraordinary Swiss prosecutor was on mission to verify the validity of the
suspicions circulating around FIFA and he found that Michael Lauber who is the
attorney general of the Swiss confederation, had informal working meetings with
Gianni Infantino the president of FIFA u during which he did not produce any
official reports contrary to what is required by the Code of Criminal
Procedure. And the justice in Switzerland asked the question: such a Monsieur,
attorney general, man of law and a former judge falls into this error!!! and
why Gianni Infantino will meet the Attorney General without traceability and
what is he hiding?
In March 2020, the prosecution's supervisory
authority found that he exhibited unfair behavior and made false statements
during his hearings about his meetings with Gianni Infantino
Following these accusations, he submitted his
resignation on July 24, 2020 while continuing to "firmly reject the
accusation of violations of the duty of office" and the extraordinary
prosecutor confirmed that there is a relationship between the two men. and
there are elements of improper behavior.
A FIFA statement clarified that the president is
at the disposal of the authorities and he will cooperate to confirm his innocence
"We can
well remember the state of the Fifa institution in 2015 and how much
fundamental judicial intervention was really necessary to help restore its
credibility"
"As
President of Fifa, my goal from day one has been and remains to assist the
authorities in the investigation of past wrongdoing by Fifa"
FIFA's ethical balance hemorrhage continues
after court-confirmed corrupt disclosures against former FIFA President Sepp
Blatter and UEFA President Michel Platini who were suspended for 6 years and 4 years
and 10 years for the former secretary general of Fifa, the French Jérôme Valcke
who was found guilty in the case of resale of tickets for the 2014 World Cup in
Brazil.
