United States officials have brought charges against current and former leaders of FIFA, the group that governs the sport of football around the world. A U.S. federal indictment accuses them of corruption and other wrongdoing. On Wednesday, the Swiss government announced its own investigation connected to the awarding of the 2018 and 2022 World Cup championships. Swiss police arrested several FIFA officials in Zurich. The U.S. indictment includes 47 charges against 14 people. Federal lawyers say sports media officials paid or agreed to pay more than $150 million in exchange for marketing rights to football events. The sport is known as soccer in the United States.

The Justice Department said the FIFA officials were carrying out a 24-year plan to “enrich themselves through the corruption of international soccer." Swiss officials said seven FIFA officials were arrested Wednesday. They were sent to the United States for a court hearing. The U.S. Justice Department said officials executed a search order at FIFA’s offices in Miami, Florida. It also said four individuals have already admitted guilt in the corruption investigation. U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch said corruption in FIFA is "rampant, systemic and deep-rooted." She said there are many victims in the case.
