Football: Swiss prosecutor, under fire, defends handling of soccer probe


ZURICH (Reuters) - Switzerland's top prosecutor defended his handling of a high-profile investigation into soccer corruption on Saturday amid scrutiny of closed-door meetings he has held with FIFA President Gianni Infantino. But media reports of a third confidential meeting prompted a preliminary investigation by the watchdog that oversees Lauber's agency. Lauber's office is conducting around 25 criminal investigations alongside 15 foreign law enforcement agencies. More than 40 entities and individuals have been charged by U.S. prosecutors in connection with the FIFA investigation. Lauber's office has filed no charges yet in the case.
