Fearing that the corruption allegations against Commonwealth Games Organising Committee could impact on the October 3-14 multi-sporting event, CGF chief Michael Fennell demanded immediate attention by the Indian authorities in the matter.
Fennell said the CGF was seriously concerned about the allegations and the matter should be dealt urgently so that they do not affect the conduct of the 2010 Games in Delhi.
"Federation is really concerned about the allegations and the matter needs very urgent and immediate attention by the Indian authorities. The allegations have led to such level of corruption that has breached all the rules of how you procure and how you handle the matter," Fennell said.
"That's why we need to resolve this speedily. We can't allow it to hang over the Games and affect the organisation of the Games, therefore such allegations needs to be handled speedily and with full transparency," he told Times Now channel.
The Commonwealth Games have been rocked by a series of corruption allegations recently and its organising committee headed by Suresh Kalmadi have set up a penal to investigate the matter.
