Should players be penalized more for offensive behavior directed against FIFA officials than against other players

Should players be penalized more for offensive behavior directed against FIFA officials than against other players? Why?

Often murder of a police officer carries penalties more severe than murder of an ordinary citizen. Should this be so?
Is it more defensible to increase penalties when the victim is a FIFA official or when the victim is a police officer? Why?
