Documents 'reveal details of Jack Warner Fifa bribes'

The BBC claims to have seen evidence detailing what happened to the $10m sent from FIFA sent accounts controlled by former vice-president Jack Warner. The money, sent on behalf of South Africa, is said to have been meant to be used for its diaspora legacy programme to develop football in the Caribbean. The BBC reported that it had seen documents showing Warner had used the money for cash withdrawals, personal loans and to launder money. Three wire transfers - on 4 January, 1 February and 10 March 2008 - totalling $10m (£6.5m) from Fifa accounts were reportedly received into Concacaf accounts controlled by Jack Warner. Mr Warner is among 14 people indicted on corruption charges by the FBI. He has denied all claims of wrong-doing.
