KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - Newly appointed independent Head of Integrity Mohammad Ali Al Kamali has asked the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) to probe circumstances surrounding the prosecution of suspended official Richard Lai, the governing body said on Wednesday.

Lai, a member of FIFA's audit and compliance committee, was handed a provisional 90-day ban last month after the former Guam Football Association president pleaded guilty in a U.S court to taking bribes in exchange for using his influence within the global soccer body.
