Sepp Blatter, the former FIFA president, and Michel Platini, ex-president at UEFA, were charged with fraud and other offences by Swiss prosecutors on Tuesday after a six-year investigation of a controversial $2 million payment.

Blatter has been charged with fraud, mismanagement, misappropriation of FIFA funds and forgery of a document. Platini has been charged with fraud, misappropriation, forgery and as an accomplice to Blatter's alleged mismanagement.

This seems very much like "get Capone on Tax Evasion" as the sums of money that go through those agencies this seems like a very small amount.
