Qatar's beIN Media Group Monday called on football's governing body FIFA to take legal action against what it claims are pirate broadcasters in Saudi Arabia ahead of the World Cup.
"We have requested FIFA to take direct legal action against Arabsat and the indications we have show that they are behind that," general counsel of beIN Sophie Jordan told AFP on Monday.
Saudi Arabia is the largest shareholder of Arabsat.
