On May 25th his only challenger, Mohamed Bin Hammam, a Qatari who was once an ally, facedan unexpected obstacle: allegations of bribery involving him and Jack Warner, a Trinidadianwho heads a regional confederation with 35 FIFA members. The claims were made by ChuckBlazer, the American general secretary of Mr Warners group, who sits with both men on FIFAs24-member executive committee . FIFAs ethics committee is due toexamine the claims on May 29th. The accused deny wrongdoing.
5月25日,他的唯一挑战者、也是曾经的盟友卡塔尔人穆罕默德??本??哈曼遭遇一个意想不到的障碍:他与来自特立尼达岛的杰克??沃纳因涉嫌贿赂而受到指控,后者是拥有35名国际足联成员的地区性组织的主席。该项指控是由美国人查克??布拉泽提出的,他是沃纳先生任主席的足联的秘书长,同时两人都为由24人组成的国际足联执委会的成员。国际足联道德委员会将于 29日审查该项指控。被指控者均否认了指控。
To some, FIFAs politics stank even before this.Earlier this month the former chairman of theFootball Association, which runs the game inEngland, told British MPs that four members of theexecutive committee, which decides where WorldCups should be held, had asked for, or hinted atwanting, payment in cash, kind or honour for theirvotes on the 2018 tournament. The British press has unearthed otherclaims regarding votes for the 2018 and 2022tournaments. Those involved in all this deny doingwrong; and accusations from Britain carried a whiff of bad grace, because Englands bid for2018 failed miserably. The latest claims, though, come from the heart of FIFAs politicalstructure.
