Cbi Kalmadi

A Delhi court has slapped a cost of Rs 10,000 on the CBI for its "unwarranted conduct" in creating "unnecessary confusion" and delay in the proceedings in a Commonwealth Games-related corruption case in which Congress MP Suresh Kalmadi and others are facing trial.

Suresh Kalmadi, a former president of the Indian Olympic Association, is under a cloud after being arrested by the CBI in April 2011 on corruption charges as the chairman of the organising committee of the Commonwealth Games in Delhi three years ago and is out on bail.

Kalmadi moved the court terming the investigation against him "illegal" as he was a central government employee and no prior sanction from the government was taken to initiate inquiry under the Prevention of Corruption (PC) Act.

Mr Kalmadi was arrested on April 25, 2011. He spent nine months in Delhi's Tihar Jail and was released after the Delhi High Court granted him bail on January 19 2012.

A Central Bureau of Investigation or CBI court has framed charges against Suresh Kalmadi and nine others today for allegedly cheating, conspiring and causing a loss of over Rs. 90 crore to the exchequer in a Commonwealth Games or CWG-related corruption case.

Just days after the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) filed a case against Suresh Kalmadi for allegedly awarding a dubious contract to a Switzerland-based consulting firm, Event Knowledge Services (EKS), for the Commonwealth Games (CWG), it has now emerged how rules were changed to favour the "ineligible" firm.

The CBI has filed a fresh case against Suresh Kalmadi in recruitment of manpower for the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi by awarding a dubious consultancy contract to Switzerland-based Events Knowledge Services.

Delhi High Court on Wednesday issued a notice to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) seeking its response to the bail plea of Congress MP Suresh Kalmadi, accused of corruption in the organisation of the 2010 Delhi Commonwealth Games (CWG). The High Court cited the Supreme Court ruling that bail should be the rule and jail an exception.
