1 week agoBlatter & Platini fully cleared of corruption as case ends
After two acquittals and the withdrawal of the office of the Attorney General, these criminal proceedings have finally failed. Michel Platini has been acquitted with legal effect and fully rehabilitated under criminal law. The criminal proceedings had not only legal but also massive personal and professional consequences for Michel Platini - even though no incriminating evidence was ever presented. Among other things, the criminal proceedings prevented his election as Fifa president in 2016.
