Blatter: Jail? NO I'm going to heaven!

The Fifa president, who recently announced that he is stepping down from his position, is adamant that he has a "clear conscience" over allegations of corruption. Fifa president Sepp Blatter has challenged those who claim that he is corrupt to prove it, claiming he has a "clear conscience" amid legal allegations rocking world football's governing body.
Over a dozen FBI indictments were announced just days before Fifa's presidential elections in May, with various current and former officials from within the organisation accused of serious financial crimes, including money laundering and racketeering, by the US justice system.

Blatter initially refused to accept any responsibility for the arrests and indictments, insisting that Fifa was coordinating with the FBI over the allegations, and was then re-elected for a fifth term at the head of football's governing body.
But a few days after the election, he unexpectedly announced his intention to stand down, though the Swiss insists that suggestions that his decision makes him guilty of corruption are baseless and without any evidence.
"My faith has given me strength during the last week," he told Bunte. "I am a religious person and pray, too. I own a golden cross that has been blessed by Pope Francis.
"I believe I will go to heaven one day. But I believe there is no hell. I disagree with the Pope on that."
He added: "I have a clean conscience. If somebody accuses me of being corrupt, I ask him whether he knows the meaning of that word. Whoever calls me corrupt will have to prove it, but nobody can prove that because I am not corrupt.
"I am open to correct or positive criticism. I can use that to reconsider if I need to change in the future. But if anybody calls me corrupt because Fifa is corrupt, I can only shake my head. Everybody who says something like that should go to jail."
