The Swiss authorities (pictured, inset, inside the hotel) allege the arrested men have taken more than £65million ($100million) in 'bribes and kick-backs' over 25 years in return for FIFA sponsorship deals. FIFA's top brass are in Switzerland for the FIFA congress and presidential election, where Sepp Blatter is widely expected to win a fifth term at the helm of the governing body of world football. Blatter was not among the men arrested.
