Jack Warner, former FIFA vice president, surrenders to authorities

A former FIFA vice president who has been indicted on corruption charges says he is innocent.

Jack Warner is among the nine FIFA officials and five corporate executives who were indicted in New York on Wednesday. Warner, who also served as CONCACAF president from 1990-2011 before he resigned amid a FIFA ethics probe, claims he has never even been questioned by the FBI in regard to its investigation.

“I have been afforded no due process and I have not even been questioned in this matter," Warner said. "I reiterate that I am innocent of any charges. I have walked away from the politics of world football.
