FIFA presidential contender Shaikh Salman Bin Ebrahim al Khalifa is mad at rumours and nasty lies which is damaging his campaign. Bahrain Human Rights Group have accused Shaikh Salman of involvement in arrest and torture of fooballers when he was head of Bahrain Football Association.
“These are false, nasty lies that have been repeated again and again in the past and the present,” the Asian Football Confederation president told the BBC in an interview.
“I cannot deny something that I haven’t done,” the 49-year-old added.
“Such accusations are not just damaging, it’s really hurting. Some people have agenda on their table.”
Shaikh Salman was head of the Bahrain FA in 2011 when scores of people were killed as security forces in the country put down mass Shia-led protests calling for reforms.
Rights groups say he helped identify players involved in the protests and did nothing to protect them from abuses.

“It’s not just damaging me, it’s damaging the people and the country,” Shaikh Salman added.
