"I have just received formal notification from the Brazilian authorities of the charges laid against me," the statement reads. "For clarity, I am not under house arrest as, like with so many things with this case, has been misreported by the media. "I intend to face all the charges and to fight each and every one of them. "I am completely innocent of all such charges and I will also vigorously defend my good name and character that I have spent my lifetime building through voluntary service for numerous sporting bodies. "I believe in the Brazilian judicial system and I am confident that I will be discharged of all accusations. "This has been a life changing experience for me, my wife, my 4 children and my 5 grandchildren and my priority is to recover my health and see my family as soon as possible. "I have been very heartened and humbled by the outpouring of support, letters, texts and emails from the thousands of people in Ireland and from the international sporting world. "I will be making no further comment until the case has been concluded."The GAA Hour podcast is out every Monday and Thursday. Subscribe here on iTunes or listen on Soundcloud (if you want to).
