Patrick Hickey, a senior member of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), has temporarily stood down from all his roles after his arrest in Rio over allegations of Olympic ticket scalping.
国际奥委会高级官员帕特里克·希基因受到倒卖奥运门票的指控在里约被捕,暂被停止一切职务。
现年71岁的希基是爱尔兰奥林匹克理事会(Olympic Council of Ireland, OCI)主席以及欧洲奥委会(European Olympic Committees, EOC)主席,自2017年起在国际奥委会执委会中任职(serve on the IOC executive board since 2017)。近日,希基在其下榻的酒店被巴西警方逮捕。警方表示,他参与了高价倒卖奥运门票的活动(be involved in a scheme to resell Olympic tickets at higher than their face value),倒票活动的利润可能达310万美元。
爱尔兰广播电视台报道称,目前希基面临协助倒票(facilitate ticket scalping)、票务垄断(form a cartel)、非法营销(illicit marketing)等多项指控。里约的侦查人员表示,如果上述罪名成立(if these allegations are confirmed),希基将面临7年的牢狱之灾。不过上周在接受爱尔兰广播电视台采访时,希基否认了一切与门票倒卖相关的不正当行为(Hickey denied any wrongdoing in relation to ticket sales)。
