Today,
a FIFA court banned Sepp Blatter and Michel Platini for 8 years after
finding them guilty of abusing their positions over a $2m payment that
was made to the suspended head of European football. .
.
Both
were immediately banned from all football activity. Blatter, FIFA’s
president since 1998, was fined $40,000. Platini was fined $80,000. .
.
A
statement by the court said both showed “abusive execution” of their
powers. In the case of Platini, the court said he “failed to act with
complete credibility and integrity, showing unawareness of the
importance of his duties.”.
