Council of Europe committee calls for investigation into Blatter re-election

Sepp Blatter's unopposed re-election as FIFA president last year should be the subject of an internal investigation into whether he unfairly exploited his position, according to a Council of Europe assembly committee.

A meeting of the culture, science, education and media committee in Paris yesterday on "Good governance and ethics in sport" passed a draft resolution calling on FIFA to launch an inquiry and to speed up their reforms.
