Two FIFA officials were arrested Thursday by the Swiss police, for suspicion of accepting millions of dollars in bribes — some of which were allegedly processed by U.S. banks.
According to the Swiss Justice Ministry, the early-morning raids in Zurich came after 'arrest requests' submitted by the U.S. Department of Justice on November 29.
The high-ranking FIFA officials are suspicious of allegedly receiving bribes in return for selling marketing rights in connection with football tournaments in Latin America, as well as World Cup qualifying matches.
The Swiss Justice Ministry stated, that according to the arrest requests, some of the offences were agreed and prepared in the United States and payments were also processed via U.S. banks.
A spokeswoman for the Swiss Justice Ministry told NBC News, that the two suspects are now under so called extradition detention. If they appeal their extradition, the process could take a long time..

Swiss police have arrested two FIFA officials on suspicion of accepting 'millions of dollars' in bribes, according to a statement from the Swiss Federal Office of Justice. The arrests in Zurich early Thursday were part of an operation requested by U.S. authorities, as the U.S. Department of Justice prepares to announce a new round of charges against multiple officials and executives tied to alleged corruption at football's world governing body. 'On the instructions of the (Swiss) Federal Office of Justice, a further two FIFA officials were arrested in Zurich today,' the statement read. 'They are being held in custody pending their extradition. According to U.S. arrest requests, they are suspected of accepting bribes of millions of dollars. 'The high-ranking FIFA officials are alleged to have taken the money in return for selling marketing rights in connection with football tournaments in Latin America, as well as World Cup qualifying matches. 'According to the arrest requests, some of the offenses were agreed and prepared in the USA. Payments were also processed via U.S. banks,' the statement added, explaining why the U.S. was in a position to ask for the arrests. The move represents an escalation in the U.S. corruption probe that has already thrown FIFA into disarray. 'FIFA will continue to cooperate fully with the U.S. investigation as permitted by Swiss law, as well as with the investigation being led by the Swiss Office of the Attorney General. FIFA will have no further comment on today's developments.'
