LONDON - FIFA chief Sepp Blatter denied involvement in the corruption charges against election rival Mohamed bin Hammam on Thursday, expressing his 'shock and dismay' at the latest scandal to rock world football.

In a column on the respected InsideWorldFootball blog, Blatter said suggestions that the allegations against bin Hammam were politically motivated ahead of a June 1st presidential election were 'ludicrous'. 'I take no joy to see men who stood by my side for some two decades, suffer through public humiliation without having been convicted of any wrongdoing ...,' Blatter wrote in his column.
