A
corruption watchdog commissioned to advise FIFA on stamping out graft has cut
its ties with international football’s governing body.
Transparency
International (TI) said the football association had ignored its key
recommendations.
FIFA, in
turn, has hired in an external expert to monitor the ‘reform process’,
following a series of bribery and corruption scandals. But TI says the expert’s
objectivity is questionable, given that he’s on FIFA’s pay roll.
Consultant
Mark Piet said it was common practice in companies to be hired in and still
take an independent stance in giving advice. FIFA has refused to comment on the
issue.
