Recall that the criminal case concerned $ 2.3 million, which in 2011 was received from FIFA after Blatter’s consent as compensation for work as a technical consultant.
Both functionaries were accused of fraud and corruption, and a long investigation began in 2015.
In 2022, the court of first instance acquitted Blatter and Platini, and today the judges of the Court of Appeal did not again grant the petition of the prosecutor’s office.
We will add that the prosecutor’s office has asked for an 89-year-old Blatter and a 69-year-old plain 20 months of a conventional term.
Earlier, Platini criticized Alexander Cheferin and Gianni Infantino, saying that they are only interested in money.
