Platini files lawsuit against Fifa
Former Uefa president Michel Platini has filed civil and legal actions against Fifa and President Gianni Infantino, accusing them of corruption and malicious prosecution related to a 2015 scandal that prevented his Fifa presidential bid. The criminal complaint, lodged in France, targets Infantino and two Fifa officials, while a civil lawsuit seeks financial compensation over alleged efforts to block his election. Platini, once a leading candidate for Fifa president, had his 2016 bid derailed by the scandal and was banned by Fifa's ethics committee until later reductions.
