BBC Panorama Reporter Andy Davies:

‘A one million franc bribe … is it not correct that Mr Blatter asked that it be moved to the FIFA official who was named on the payment slip?’

‘If you do not stop now, then we call the security and we put you out.’

‘FIFA is a healthy, clean and transparent organisation with nothing to hide. There is huge public interest in FIFA, therefore we have to be as transparent as possible. We will try to communicate in a more open way so the world can believe us and be proud of their federation.’

Has Sepp Blatter’s ‘Special Advisor’ Peter Hargitay committed career suicide?

Sunday April 6, 2008

The English FA hired Peter Hargitay because he persuaded them he was close to Sepp Blatter and skilled at crisis management. But when questions were raised about his murky past, Hargitay created his own crisis with an astonishing testosterone-soaked attack on reporter Andrew Jennings.

Here’s Hargitay’s dirty tricks website, the abi company.

It is a hilarious collection of fantasy, half-truths and non-existent characters.

Enjoy.

Click to find him on the page called Profiles. He is the 50-year-old Swiss-Hungarian. Many of his claims are blatant lies.

Hargitay creates his websites to ensnare specific target clients. Who was he after in 2002? Was it the president of FIFA?
