The Swedish Football Association goes on to state that two national team players in futsal are arrested suspects for match fixing.
- We have been informed that two players have been arrested and according to the information we have, these are suspicions of match fixing-related crime, says Håkan Sjöstrand.
How did this come about?
- We have been assisting the police with investigative material for some time and we have now received information that they have been arrested.
How long have you known about this?
- I can't go into that, with respect to the investigative work that is going on.
What will happen now?
- I am referring to the police as a preliminary investigation is underway.
Are there more people who may be suspicious?
- I have to refer that to the police, they have to answer that.
Håkan Sjöstrand cannot go into what kind of matches it should touch.
- But from what we know, it's not about national team matches, he says.
Håkan Sjöstrand continues:
- Of course it is sad and totally unacceptable. This also shows the problems associated with match fixing.
The police are very brief about the incident at this time.
"An effort is underway right now, otherwise we do not provide any information," says Fredrik Gårdare, head of the police's group against sports-related crime.
