FairSquare had submitted the complaint, accusing Infantino of a

'repeated breach of political neutrality rules.'

The group previously lodged a similar complaint with FIFA's Ethics Committee last year, alleging Infantino had publicly expressed support for the actions and policies of US President Donald Trump on multiple occasions. That complaint was reviewed and ultimately dismissed, and the IOC has now taken the same stance.
