ISTANBUL (Reuters) - Prosecutors investigating soccer match-fixing in Turkey have brought charges against 93 suspects -- including the chairman of champions Fenerbahce -- in an indictment that mentioned almost all of the country's top clubs, media reported on Saturday.
More than 30 players and officials, including Fenerbahce chairman Aziz Yildirim, have been jailed pending trial since the scandal forced the Turkish Football Federation (TFF) to delay the start of the season by a month.
