WASHINGTON, Dec 10 (Reuters) – Federal prosecutors have moved to dismiss charges against a former Fox executive and an Argentine sports marketing company convicted of trying to bribe soccer officials in exchange for lucrative broadcasting contracts, according to a court filing.

U.S. Attorney for Eastern District of New York Joseph Nocella Jr. wrote a letter on Tuesday to the judge who oversaw the case, saying that dismissing it was in the “interest of justice.”
