Michael Garcia, the American lawyer who led the investigation into the 2018 and 2022 World Cup bid process, has resigned from the FIFA ethics committee in protest over the handling of his findings.
Garcia cited a "lack of leadership" at the top of FIFA in a resignation statement on Wednesday.
He also says he lost confidence in the independence of his ethics committee colleague, German judge Joachim Eckert.
