Swiss
prosecutors have opened a criminal investigation into Joseph Blatter, the head
of world soccer body FIFA, on suspicion of criminal mismanagement and
misappropriation, the Swiss attorney general's office (OAG) said on Friday.
As the corruption probe at FIFA widened,

in Zurich, the OAG said in a statement.
"Furthermore, the OAG conducted on 25 September
2015 a house search at FIFA Headquarters with the support of the Federal
Criminal Police. The office of the FIFA President has been searched and data
