BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) The governing body of world swimming says senior vice president Husain al-Musallam is clear to be re-elected unopposed on Saturday despite being linked to a bribery case.
FINA says ”there was no case to answer based on the information that is available to FINA at this time.”
In May, FINA said it would ”take all measures deemed necessary” after al-Musallam was identified as ”co-conspirator (hash)3” in a FIFA bribery case.
FIFA official Richard Lai of Guam said in Brooklyn federal court he was paid six-figure bribes through the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) to advance the soccer interests of Kuwaiti officials.
