The head of the world's football governing authority, FIFA, says he wants to set up a body to investigate allegations of corruption at his organisation. The official, Sepp Blatter, said the aim is to strengthen Fifa's credibility and increase transparency in football. His comments come several weeks after Fifa suspended two members of its executive committee over allegations that they had accepted bribes. Both men denied any wrong doing. Unveiling the anti-corruption committee, Blatter said he would not be part of it but it would consist of seven to nine members from sports, politics, finance, business and culture.
