Swiss police arrested two more top soccer officials in a dawn raid on Thursday on suspicion that they accepted millions of dollars in bribes.
The arrests marked a dramatic widening of the FIFA corruption scandal.
The two officials detained in Zurich are FIFA vice-presidents Juan Angel Napout of Paraguay and Alfredo Hawit of Honduras, said a senior official at the global organization, who declined to be named.
