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.
