After bravely if not foolishly interrupting Sepp Blatter's news conference and showering him fake banknotes, British comedian Simon Brodkin will be charged by the Swiss police for trespassing.
The 38-year-old comedian known for his cheerful chav character Lee Nelson was detained but immediately released after questioning.
"He will be charged for trespassing because he wasn't allowed to enter the building," a police spokesman said.
The eight president of FIFA stopped the news conference which was just about to begin when Brodkin appeared and shouted something about the North Korea bid for 2016 World Cup then threw a pile of fake money at Blatter.
"If there will be a trial it is still to be decided by the prosecutor. Trespassing in Switzerland is just prosecuted by request like other minor crimes," the police spokesperson added.
The prankster also interrupted Kanye West's performance at the Glastonbury, tried to board a plane with the England national team en route to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil and also attempted to warm up with the Manchester City before a Premier League match against Everton in 2013.
