Two People Charged in Football Match Fixing Scheme

Two individuals have been charged over alleged match-fixing in English football, the National Crime Agency (NCA) told the BBC on Friday.

Singapore national Chann Sankaran, 33, and Krishna Sanjey Ganeshan, 43, were charged with conspiracy to defraud.

They were among six people held earlier this week, and a seventh person has now been arrested.

The BBC understands that none is linked to professional football clubs, although earlier reports suggested that three footballers were among those with charges pending.  Three unidentified footballers are said to have been held as part of the investigation. 

Sources have told the BBC one of the other suspects is former Premier League player Delroy Facey, now a football agent.
