Fifa has provisionally suspended executive committee members Mohamed Bin¹ Hammam and Jack² Warner after a meeting of its ethics³ committee on Sunday.

国际足联道德委员会在周日会议之后临时决定暂停执委会成员哈曼和杰克·沃纳的职务。

Football's governing body will now open a full investigation⁴ into allegations that financial incentives⁵ were offered to members of the Caribbean Football Union (CFU).

CFU officials Debbie Minguell and Jason Sylvester have also been suspended.

But Fifa president Sepp Blatter was found to have no case to answer.

Petrus Damaseb, deputy chairman of the ethics committee, said of Bin Hammam and Warner: "We are satisfied that there is a case to be answered."

However, Fifa insists that they are innocent until proven guilty.

If found guilty, they could be expelled（驱逐，开除） from the organisation⁶ and banned from all football activity.

Bin Hammam was the only candidate due to oppose Blatter in the forthcoming election for the Fifa presidency⁷ but he withdrew in the early hours of Sunday morning.

Fifa secretary general Jerome Valcke confirmed that Wednesday's election would go ahead unless three-quarters of the 208 delegates voted to change the agenda.

It leaves Blatter clear to seek a fourth term in charge of the organisation, which he has run since 1998, unopposed.

"I am not Fifa, I can't change the agenda," Valcke said. "It is up to the delegates - they have the final say."

"I don't see what is wrong with this election with Mr Sepp Blatter.

"I think the most important thing is a commitment from all the members of the Fifa ExCo with the president to support a change within Fifa and in his last mandate⁸（授权，命令） make sure that Fifa is stronger and cleaner than it was.

"Maybe we can have the top guys around the world come to put things in place to stop these things from happening again."

The Qatari and his colleague, Fifa vice-president Warner, were forced to answer charges of bribery⁹ over allegations from executive committee member Chuck Blazer in Zurich on Sunday.

It was alleged¹⁰ that they offered bribes¹¹（赃款） at a meeting of the CFU on 10 and 11 May.
