Swiss prosecutors have launched legal proceedings against Fifa president Gianni Infantino.
Axar.az reports citing foreign media.
It is in relation to an alleged secret meeting the head of world football's governing body held with the Swiss attorney general Michael Lauber.
Lauber last week offered to resign after a court said he covered up the meeting and lied to supervisors during an investigation by his office into corruption surrounding Fifa.
Both have denied any wrongdoing.
Lauber's office said he officially tendered his resignation on Tuesday, with his last day of active duty set for 31 August.
It comes after special prosecutor Stefan Keller was appointed last month to review criminal complaints against the two men and others.
He found indications of criminal conduct related to their meetings, the authority overseeing the Office of the Attorney General (OAG) said.
