GENEVA -- It was the FIFA ethics investigation many hoped would remove Russia and Qatar as World Cup hosts.But two years after disputed details of the so-called Garcia Report into the 2018-2022 World Cup bid campaigns were first revealed, it is still not close to being published.Switzerlands federal prosecution office suggests it might take three more years before its investigation of alleged FIFA-linked money laundering is complete and the 430-page dossier can be published.FIFA critics and presidential candidates have often demanded that the Garcia Report -- read in its entirety by perhaps as few as seven authorized people -- be released to help judge if the hosting contests were won fairly in a December 2010 vote of the soccer bodys scandal-tainted executive committee.Michael Garcia, the FIFA ethics prosecutor who led the investigation, himself asked for appropriate publication that would protect witnesses before he resigned to protest how his work was handled.Still, the American lawyers report was the basis of a criminal complaint by FIFA to Switzerlands federal prosecutors on Nov. 18, 2014 -- and must stay sealed and confidential during that case.The Swiss federal investigation of suspected criminal mismanagement and money laundering during the 11-nation bid campaigns might not be over when the next World Cup kicks off in June 2018 in Moscow.This type of criminal proceeding (is) time consuming and resource intense. Usually, respective proceedings take some three to five years, the office of Swiss attorney general Michael Lauber said in a statement to The Associated Press.As the report in question is to be seen as evidence in ongoing criminal proceedings, the OAG hardly sees any legally justifiable way the report (can be) published, the Swiss federal office said.Laubers team currently has 172 suspicious transactions which passed through Swiss banks to examine.Adding to the Swiss workload, prosecutions of alleged corruption that spun off the original FIFA case are ongoing against former president Sepp Blatter, fired secretary general Jerome Valcke, and organizers of the 2006 World Cup including Germany great Franz Beckenbauer.A further complication is that potential witnesses, including some FIFA voters six years ago, are scattered worldwide, have not returned to Switzerland and previously refused to answer Garcias questions.Garcias ultimately short career at FIFA is defined by an investigation many hoped would lead to a re-run of the 2018-2022 hosting votes.Appointed in July 2012 by an executive committee he would investigate, the former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York was given unlimited time and resources but limited evidence-gathering powers within a new FIFA Code of Ethics.In September 2014, Garcia submitted his 350-page investigation into seven bid candidates, plus a further 80 pages of files on American and Russian bids which were investigated by his deputy, Cornel Borbely.On Nov. 13, 2014, FIFA published a 42-page summary by chief ethics judge Joachim Eckert. It left Garcia furious.Eckert wrote that while he saw certain occurrences that were suited to impair the integrity of the vote, they were limited in scope. The German judge advised Blatters executive committee to let the results stand.Within hours, Garcia hit out at numerous materially incomplete and erroneous representations of facts and conclusions. He challenged Eckerts summary at the FIFA appeals committee.Garcia resigned a month later after FIFA dismissed his appeal.The Report identified serious and wide-ranging issues with the bidding and selection process, Garcia wrote in a resignation statement, citing his lost confidence in Eckerts independence and Blatters leadership.Garcia has not commented since, and declined comment to the AP for this article.As Garcia and Eckert very publicly fell out, FIFA filed the Swiss criminal complaint and further legal opinions were sought which supported Eckerts position. Blatter later invited Eckert to publish a redacted report when any subsequent ethics cases were complete.At least two known cases -- involving former FIFA vice president Chung Mong-joon and former bid inspector Harold Mayne-Nicholls -- are still active, FIFA told the AP in a recent statement. Both men got reduced ethics ban at the FIFA appeals panel and could go to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.Due to ongoing ethics proceedings and the possibility that further cases might be opened in the future, a publication of the `Garcia Report is not possible at the moment, Eckerts office said in a statement.It is Lauber, however, who is set to shape the legacy of the multi-million dollar Garcia investigation.Garcia himself wrote, in summary by Eckert, about the limitations of his work.To assume, e.g., that envelopes full of cash are given in exchange for votes on a FIFA World Cup host is naive, the 42-page summary stated. Corruption, also in general business not linked to football, is executed in much more sophisticated ways, including money transfers through several different accounts of consultants, trusts, offshore companies, etc.Laubers federal prosecutors have the mandate to explore those channels within a criminal case that he formally opened in 2015 -- on March 10, Blatters birthday.

Sumit Narwal, who held his nerve to help Delhi pull off a tense chase against Rajasthan last week, starred with the ball this time. His four-wicket haul helped skittle Vidarbha for 183 in Chennai. Shikhar Dhawan, on a comeback trail after recovering from a fractured finger, fell for 6 as Delhi went into stumps on 12 for 1. Gautam Gambhir, the captain, and Pradeep Sangwan were at the crease. Only one Vidarbha batsman - Shalabh Shrivastava (62) - crossed fifty, while one another Shrikant Wagh (46) contributed handy lower order runs. A good showing with the ball augers well for Delhi as they look to drive ahead. With rain forecast for the next three days, the drainage at the SSN College grounds could also be tested.Table toppers Karnataka suffered a second first-innings meltdown in as many games to be bowled out for 200, but somewhat recovered courtesy their captain R Vinay Kumar to reduce Saurashtra, currently scraping the bottom, to 19 for 2 at stumps in Patiala. Manish Pandey top scored with 75 and Shreyas Gopal contributed 38 at No. 9 to help the side stage a brief recovery. Vandit Jivrajani, the offspinner playing in only his fourth first-class game, and debutant Jay Chauhan picked up three wickets apiece. Jaydev Unadkat, their pace spearhead, removed Pandey and Shreyas to finish with 2 for 111.dddddddddddd Snell Patel and Sheldon Jackson were at the crease for Saurashtra when play ended.Half-centuries from Saurabh Tiwary (88) and Ishank Jaggi (80 not out) helped Jharkhand remain steady on 251 for 4 after being put in to bat by Assam in Vizianagaram. The pair added 151 for the fourth wicket after Jharkhand were reduced to 98 for 3. Along the way, they also defied Assams bowlers for a better part of two sessions. Each of Jharkhands top three failed to convert starts. Pratyush Singh made 30 while No. 3 Sumit Kumar made 32. The spoils were equally shared by Assams bowlers - Krishna Das, Arup Das, Dhiraj Goswami and Abu Nechim were all among the wickets.Biplab Samantarays 89 helped Odisha recover from 31 for 3 to end the opening day against Maharashtra in Wayanad on 311 for 9. Samantarays 98-run stand for the seventh wicket with Deepak Behara, who made 58, helped arrest a slide triggered by Maharashtras pacers. Anupam Sanklecha, the bowling spearhead who had picked up 26 wickets in the last two matches, nipped out the top three, before Mohsin Sayyad ate into the middle order. Things could have been much worse for Odisha if it wasnt for Samantarays defiance. ' ' '
