Mr. Suresh Kalmadi, who chaired the organizing committee of Commonwealth Games held in India in September last year, has been taken into custody by the Central Bureau of Investigation. Large scale misappropriation of funds and kickbacks were said to have taken place in conducting the CWG. Nearly 70, 000 crores have allegedly changed hands in this scam. The CBI has till now interrogated Suresh Kalmadi four times in this connection.
Though Suresh Kalmadi has been maintaining that the he has got nothing to do with the actual conducting of the games, he was accused with awarding contracts without proper tenders and there by receiving kickbacks from the companies. He was nailed down by the CBI particularly in case of a London based A S Film company. Kalmadi is accused of awarding out of way contract for broadcasting rights of 'Queen's Baton' event, that was held prior to CWG in London, to this company.
Before taking Kalmadi in to their custody, the CBI has grilled him for over two hours in the A S Films related issue. After taking him in to custody, he was shifted to an unknown destination. How long CBI will be keeping him in their custody, is not yet known.
