German referee Jansen denies match-fixing

NDTV: "German referee Juergen Jansen has denied any involvement in the country's match-fixing scandal and said a witch-hunt was making life intolerable for his family. 44-year-old Jansen, the only Bundesliga referee mentioned in connection with the case, is under suspicion of fixing two matches, including the Bundesliga game between FC Kaiserslautern and FC Freiburg in November last year. Jansen looked visibly upset throughout the news conference and was at times close to tears. The vastly experienced Jansen has refereed 142 first division games and he saw the accusations against him as an attack on all of his colleagues from the top flight. "
