New Delhi: Suspended Commonwealth Games Organising Committee deputy director general Sanjay Mohindroo is in for more trouble. CNN-IBN has accessed an important Organising Committee note questioning Mohindroo's claims of Rs 22.8 lakh as reimbursements.
An advance of £ 127,930.40 was given to Mohindroo for managing the London leg of the Queen's Baton Relay but Mohindroo showed expenditure of £ 160,526.90 and claimed the difference of Rs 22.8 lakh as reimbursements.
But Organising Committee Accounts Director has questioned Mohindroo's claims.
"A statement is required to be prepared regarding amount sanctioned and expenditure of Mr Mohindroo. Does it mean that he spent an amount of Rs 22.80 lakh out of his own funds in UK?" the director asked.
CNN-IBN asks: How did Mohindroo spend Rs 22.8 lakh from his own pocket in a foreign land? Was AM Films awarded contract by Mohindroo to get inflated bills to justify his reimbursement claims?
Mohindroo was sacked from the Commonwealth Games Organising Committee and has already been questioned by the Enforcement Directorate for alleged financial irregularities.
Mohindroo was suspended and then removed from the Organising Committee along with joint director generals TS Darbari and M Jeyachandran after a committee submitted its report on charges of corruption during the Queen's Baton Relay launch in London in October 2009.
