Corruption probe expanded as senior FIFA officials arrested

Raids in Zurich trigger avalanche of new charges

Sixteen top international soccer officials were arrested and charged in a dramatic widening of the FIFA corruption investigation on Thursday, as US prosecutors vowed to leave no stone unturned in rooting out graft.

Several senior FIFA officials from the past or present were named in a 92-count US Justice Department indictment which came after a series of dawn raids at a lux-ury hotel in Zurich hosting FIFA officials.
