Yves Jean-Bart strikes back Yves Jean-Bart, former President of the Haitian Football Federation, banned for life from sport due to allegations of sexual abuse of young players, says the accusations are false and baseless, especially those accusing him of having made several players pregnant when he is unable to procreate due to his treatment for cancer which made him infertile and that "corrupt" FIFA uses him as a "scapegoat". He announces that he has appealed the FIFA decision to the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Geneva.
