德國著名足球運動員弗朗茨·貝肯鮑爾被列為參與2006年德國世界杯賄選事件六名調查對象之一。在審查德國足球協會委托的一份報道後,世界性管理機構國際足聯下屬的道德委員會決定采取相關措施。請聽 Richard Conway 的報道。
The investigation centres on allegations that Germany made undue payments and contracts to secure votes when bidding successfully to host the 2006 World Cup.
Last year, the German publication Der Spiegel claimed Germany’s World Cup committee had established a slush fund of £4.8m to buy votes and secure the rights to stage the tournament.
Mr Beckenbauer and other officials have denied the allegations.
