FIFA files criminal complaint against online ticket seller Viagogo

ZURICH, June 05 (Reuters): Soccer's ruling body FIFA has filed a criminal complaint against online ticket reseller Viagogo, saying it wanted to protect fans and prevent unauthorised ticket resales at the World Cup in Russia starting next week.
Zurich-based FIFA said on Tuesday it had filed a complaint, based on the law on unfair competition, with the public prosecutor's office in Geneva after receiving complaints about the Swiss company's practices.
Viagogo did not reply immediately to a request for comment.
