Cancel Kalmadi’s accreditation: CSI
New Delhi: Continuing its protest over th-e possibility of Suresh Kalmadi’s presence in the London Games, Clean Sports India, a movement for corruption-free sports in the country, today wrote a letter to IOC, requesting it to cancel the sacked CWG Organising Committee chief’s accreditation for the Games.
“This move of him goin-g to London, while his pro-secution/trial is under pro-gress, has generated huge public outrage in India. We would request you to kindly bring it to the notice of the organising committee of London Olympics 2012 that Mr. Kalmadi visiting Lond-on to attend the Games can have serious consequence-s,” CSI said in the letter signed by its convenor BVP Rao and acting president Ashwini Nachappa. “It is in London that the CWG 2010 scam broke on Mr. Kalmadi’s misuse of funds allocated to the ope-ning ceremony of Queen’s Baton Relay,” CSI wrote. CSI had earlier expressed disappoi-ntment at a Delhi court’s decision to allow Kalmadi to go to the Games.
