CBI on Monday registered two cases in connection with alleged irregularities during the Queen's Baton's Relay in London and carried out searches at CWG Organising Committee's office and at residences of some of its former officials.
CBI looks to be targetting some CWG Organising Committee members but is totally silent on the role of the top man, Suresh Kalmadi, the OC chairman whose signature was crucial to the payments made.
The two cases were registered against London-based AM Films and AM Car, which had been given contracts for the Baton Relay, official sources said.
The searches were conducted at the residence of T S Darbari, joint director general of the Commonwealth Games Organising Committee, Sanjay Mahendroo, OC deputy director-general, and Raj Singh, a Director level officer in the OC, they said.
The first case has been registered against London-based A M Car-Van Hire Limited, its owner Ashish Patel, Darbari, Mahendroo and Singh under various sections of IPC and Prevention of Corruption Act dealing with forgery, cheating and abuse of official position, CBI officials said.
