Ahmad Ahmad, the president of the Confederation of African Football, has been arrested Thursday in Paris, France.
Jeune Afrique reports that the CAF president was staying at the Berri Hotel to attend the FIFA Congress when he was arrested.
The report stated that the arrest is linked to the contract unilaterally broken by CAF with the German equipment manufacturer Puma to engage with the company Technical Steel, based in La Seyne-sur-Mer.
He had defended himself last April and gave the assurance that all decisions were transparent.
