Fifa whistleblower Phaedra
Al-Majid returns with a reiterated claim of FIFA's corruption over Qatar World
cup bid win. The report claiming that Qataris bribed three FIFA officials for
votes was botched when Al-Majid signed an affidavit claiming her reports were
false. Attributing her action to threats from Qataris, she retracted her earlier
claim when FBI met with her. However, judge Hans-Joachim Eckert ruled out
her evidence on November 13, saying it was riddled with inconsistencies. On the
other side, Qatar claims they gave ethics investigator Michael Garcia their
full support during his probe, and they stand blameless to these allegations.
