Two non-league footballers implicated as part of a sweeping match-fixing scheme are now out on bail until Friday.

Michael Boateng and Hakeem Adelakun, both 22, play for Whitehawk FC, based in Brighton, in the Conference South.

The pair are accused of conspiring to defraud bookmakers by influencing match outcomes in various games and placing bets.

Several other footballers have been arrested for their ties to match fixing in recent weeks.

In recent days, Blackburn striker D.J. Campbell and a handful of other footballers were arrested for their role in match fixing activities.
