国际足联决定布拉特等人停职90天

The ethics committee of football\'s governing body FIFA has suspended embattled President Sepp Blatter and his potential successor for 90 days.

The committee took the action against Blatter and Michel Platini, the head of the Union of European Football Association (UEFA) Thursday less than two weeks after Swiss prosecutors opened a criminal investigation against Blatter over a $2 million payment to Platini in 2011. Authorities questioned Blatter at FIFA\'s Zurich headquarters and searched his office.

The suspension will likely derail Platini\'s bid to succeed Blatter when elections are held in February. The retired French star denied any wrongdoing earlier Thursday when word leaked of his suspension.

国际足联道德委员会星期四对布拉特和欧洲足联主席普拉蒂尼采取行动。近两周前，瑞士检察官就巴拉特2011年向普拉蒂尼支付两百万美元一案启动刑事调查。当局在国际足联总部对巴拉特进行问讯并搜查了他的办公室。

普拉蒂尼被停职很可能打破他想接替巴拉特出任足联主席的计划。国际足联明年二月选举新主席。前法国球星普拉蒂尼星期四在他被停职的消息传出后否认有任何违法行为。
