FIFA is "following with concern" the detention of one of its officials for allegedly defaming the Bangladeshi prime minister, a FIFA spokesman said on Tuesday, reports AFP.
Mahfuza Akhter, a FIFA council member and the national chief of women's soccer, was arrested on Saturday after a local football organiser accused her of making derogatory comments about PM Sheikh Hasina.
