Europol deckt massiven Betrug im Profifußball auf

Beitrag von Doughnut Boy Andy »

Europol gab am Montag in Den Haag bekannt, dass es sich um 380 manipulierte Spiele, darunter Partien der Champions League und der WM-Qualifikation, handeln soll. Insgesamt sollen 425 Schiedsrichter, Spieler und weitere Offizielle involviert sein.

Europol, which has been investigating for 18 months, said suspected matches included World Cup and European Championship qualifiers, two Champions League ties and "several top football matches in European leagues".

They said that criminals put €16m on rigged matches and made €8m in profits. Payments of €2m are thought to have been paid to those involved, while investigators said that the biggest payment to an individual was €140,000.

Europol believes a crime syndicate based in Asia was liaising with criminal networks throughout Europe. It believes match-fixing has taken place in 15 countries and 50 people have so far been arrested. Officials said they feared this was the "tip of the iceberg".
