New York: Former US prosecutor Michael Garcia on Wednesday resigned as chief corruption investigator for FIFA after football`s governing body rejected his appeal against the handling of his report into the votes for the 2018 and 2022 World Cups.
Garcia quit one day after FIFA rejected his appeal over the followup to his 18 month inquiry. Garcia had complained that a summary of his report released by FIFA`s top judge Hans-Joachim Eckert was "incomplete and erroneous."
