(BBC) – Former FIFA vice-president Jack Warner has said in a TV address that he will reveal all he knows about corruption at world football’s governing body.

Warner, who said he feared for his life, also said he could link FIFA officials to general elections in his native Trinidad and Tobago in 2010.

He is one of the 14 people charged by the US over alleged corruption at FIFA.

Another top FIFA official and key witness, American Chuck Blazer, has admitted accepting bribes.

The admissions came in a newly released transcript of Blazer’s guilty plea from 2013, as part of a wide-ranging US criminal case that has engulfed Fifa and led president Sepp Blatter to resign.
