FIFA decide on report release



fifa vote for report next week


Following copious investigation into alleged corruption related to 2018 and 2022 World cup hosting within the football governing body, FIFA has proposed to vote next week for a release of an edited version of the investigation report. Fifa executive committee member, German Theo Zwanziger, said Article 36 of the body's ethic code could be amended to permit publication of once-prohibited Garcia's report. The Michael Garcia's 430-page report done over two years investigation into alleged corruption in 2018 and 2022 World cup bidding was earlier summarised by FIFA ethics judge Hans-Joachim Eckert. Garcia rejected Eckert's report as containing inconsistencies. FIFA have however agreed to the possible publication of an edited version. The vote which holds next week at Marrakesh, Morocco, could guarantee the publication of the Michael Garcia report.
