Argentines sought by U.S. in FIFA scandal surrender: local media

BUENOS AIRES (Reuters) - Argentine businessmen Hugo and Mariano Jinkis who are sought by U.S. prosecutors in the FIFA bribery investigation handed themselves over on Thursday to the authorities in Buenos Aires, local media broadly reported.

U.S. prosecutors say Hugo Jinkis and his son, together with another Argentine Alejandro Burzaco, conspired to win and keep lucrative media rights contracts from regional soccer by paying tens of millions of dollars in bribes.
