Interpol added six men with ties to FIFA to its most wanted list on Wednesday, issuing an international alert for two former FIFA officials and four executives on charges including racketeering and corruption.
Two of the men, former FIFA vice president Jack Warner of Trinidad and former executive committee member Nicolas Leoz of Paraguay, have been arrested in their home counties.
Warner has since been released and Leoz is under house arrest.
Others listed were Argentinians Alejandro Burzaco and brothers Hugo and Mariano Jinkis, who together are accused of paying more than 100 million US dollars in bribes for media and commercial rights to soccer tournaments; and Jose Margulies, a Brazilian broadcast executive.
Meanwhile former 2010 World Cup Local Organising Committee Members have pulled out of today's press conference called to address allegations of a 10-million US dollar bribe being paid by the SA Government to Fifa in return for securing the soccer showpiece that year.
At a packed SAFA House in Johannesburg - and in front of a bank of microphones - Sports Minister Fikile Mbalula has been left alone in the hotseat to give government's response to the Fifa corruption allegations.
