FIFA vice president Jack Warner has
resigned and an investigation into
corruption allegations against him
has been dropped, world soccer’s
governing body said on Monday.
Warner, who had been suspended
pending an ethics committee probe
into bribery claims, has quit from all
his posts in international soccer
including CONCACAF president.
“FIFA regrets the turn of events that
have led to Mr Warner’s decision,”
FIFA said in a statement.
Trinidadian Warner was being
investigated in a cash-for-votes
scandal relating to the election
campaign of then FIFA presidential
candidate Mohammed Bin
Hammam that rocked the
governing body earlier this month.
Warner, who following his
suspension had threatened to
unleash a “football tsunami” by
revealing contents of emails with
FIFA president Sepp Blatter before
backing down, had been involved
with the governing body for nearly
30 years.
“His resignation has been accepted
by world football’s governing body,
and his contribution to international
football and to Caribbean football in
particular and the CONCACAF
confederation are appreciated and
acknowledged,” FIFA said.
CONCACAF is the regional
governing body of North and
Central America and the Caribbean
and is currently holding the Gold
Cup in the United States.
