Ousted FIFA ethics prosecutor: 'Several hundred cases' ongoing

None

MANAMA -- FIFA's ousted ethics prosecutor says "several hundred" cases of wrongdoing in soccer are ongoing.

 

Swiss prosecutor Cornel Borbely failed along with German judge Hans-Joachim Eckert to be nominated for re-election by the council headed by FIFA President Gianni Infantino.

 

Borbely says the "removal was unnecessary and because of that political," adding it's a "setback for the fight against corruption."
