Former FIFA President Joseph Blatter and former UEFA President Michel Platini have been acquitted by a Swiss court on charges of fraud, maladministration, breach of trust and forgery. This is reported by world agencies.

Blatter and Platini were accused of fraud by the Swiss Attorney General's Office. The court investigated the episode with a payment of 2 million Swiss francs arranged by Blatter for Platini in 2011. Prosecutors believed that the payment was made without legal grounds and caused damage to FIFA's assets. Blatter and Platini argued that the payment was agreed verbally as payment for Platini's work as a consultant from 1998 to 2002.

As a punishment, the prosecutor's office requested 18 months of suspended imprisonment for the participants in the transaction.
