Malaysian Fifa ethics committee member resigns following corruption probe

Fifa’s ethics committee member Sundra Rajoo resigned on Wednesday, one week after being suspended from his post following an investigation by an anti-corruption unit in his native Malaysia, the global soccer body said.

Fifa said in a statement that it had "taken note of the resignation with immediate effect of Mr Sundra Rajoo as a deputy chairman of its adjudicatory chamber."

It did not give further details of the investigation or of the accusations against Rajoo, who could not immediately be reached for comment.
