Swiss banks reported suspicious activity around accounts of football’s world governing body Fifa, says the Swiss attorney general.<\/p>\n
Michael Lauber said his office was analysing a “huge amount” of seized Fifa data in its corruption inquiry.<\/p>\n
He said he did not rule out interviews with Fifa president Sepp Blatter as part of his investigation.<\/p>\n
The investigation could lead to the reopening of the bidding process for the 2018 and 2022 World Cups.<\/p>\n
Fifa is facing claims of widespread corruption after Swiss police raided a hotel in Zurich – where Fifa is based – and arrested seven of its top executives last month.<\/p>\n
