FILE - A June 22, 2011 photo from files showing Singaporean, Wilson Maj Perumal, sitting in the Lapland district court in Rovaniemi, Finland. Police say they arrested convicted match-fixer Wilson Raj Perumal of Singapore on an international warrant last week in Finland, where he was given a two-year prison sentence in 2011 for bribing football players in the Finnish league. Detective Superintendent Jari Nieminen of the National Bureau of Investigation said on Wednesday, April 23, 2014, that officers were examining the warrant, but declined to give any more information. After his 2011 arrest in Finland, Perumal stunned European investigators with rare and invaluable details on international match-fixing and bribing, entailing hundreds of games and millions of euros. He claimed to have paid off footballers in Syria and Africa and fixed games in the United States. Perumal served a year of his sentence in Finland before extradition to Hungary, where he was a &quot;controlled informant&quot; under house arrest.

FILE - In this Sept. 13, 2012, file photo, NHL hockey commissioner Gary Bettman listens as he meets with reporters after a meeting with team owners, in New York. The NHL locked out its players at midnight Saturday, becoming the third major sports league to impose a work stoppage in the last 18 months. The action also marks the fourth shutdown for the NHL since 1992, including a year-long dispute that forced the cancellation of the entire 2004-05 season when the league held out for a salary cap. The deal which ended that dispute expired at midnight, and Commissioner Gary Bettman followed through on his longstanding pledge to lock out the players with no new agreement in place.
