Federal prosecutors in Switzerland have dropped one of the two open cases against former FIFA president Sepp Blatter, for selling World Cup broadcasting rights to the Caribbean Football Union.
The Office of the Attorney General (OAG) announced that, it intends to "discontinue the proceedings" regarding Blatters alleged sale of broadcast rights to the CFU for 2010 and 2014 World Cups.
As a result, Blatter who is currently serving a six-year suspension from all football activities, will not be prosecuted for the charge of selling World Cup TV rights for below market value.
The OAG however stated that the second criminal case in which Blatter is accused of paying two million Swiss francs to then UEFA president Michel Platini remains open.
