| Former FIFA vice-president Jack Warner is facing extradition to the United States over bribery allegations |
Former FIFA
vice-president Jack Warner 'diverted' some $10million paid by the South
African government to host the 2010 World Cup to pay his personal
bills.
The
cash had been paid to FIFA and then moved to CONCACAF accounts
controlled by Warner. Officially, the money was intended for 'football
legacy schemes' but it was moved around Trinidad and Tobago by the
72-year-old businessman.
Prosecutors
believe that the South African government paid out $10 million to FIFA
in bribes in order to win the right to host the 2010 world cup
