Swiss prosecutors close criminal proceedings against FIFA President Gianni Infantino

The Hindu  

Special prosecutors in Switzerland have closed criminal proceedings against FIFA President Gianni Infantino relating to undisclosed meetings with the country’s former attorney general. Infantino had meetings with Michael Lauber in 2016, soon after being elected FIFA president, during a sweeping investigation of international soccer in Switzerland and by the U.S. Department of Justice. Lauber lost his job as the top Swiss federal prosecutor in 2020 in the fallout from the Infantino meetings after being found to have misled and obstructed an oversight office monitoring federal prosecutors. “The only surprising element is only the long time taken to reach such an obvious conclusion.” Infantino said it was a “full and clear victory for me, for the new FIFA, and for justice.”
