Switzerland: Former FIFA president Sepp Blatter to return his official Mercedes Benz car

Zurich, Switzerland (PANA) - World Soccer Governing Body, FIFA, has asked former president Sepp Blatter to hand back his chauffeur-driven official Mercedes Benz car.

According to the FIFA media outlet, Blatter had continued to have the 80,000-pound car and driver at his disposal while he tried to overturn his ban from football at the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).

That appeal failed two weeks ago when CAS upheld his six-year ban for authorising a 1.5 million-pound payment to Michel Platini in 2011.

Blatter, who worked at FIFA for 40 years and was president for 17 years, has been told to return the car by the end of this week.
