Team Anna's plea for probe into CWG graft cases dismissed

NEW DELHI: A Delhi court today dismissed the plea of members of Team Anna and others seeking a direction to the probe agencies to investigate and lodge an FIR for alleged corruption in the Commonwealth Games-related cases.

Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Amit Bansal, who rejected the application for registration of the FIR, however, said if Kiran Bedi, Arvind Kejriwal, Swami Agnivesh, yoga guru Ramdev and others want to furnish any further evidence in support of their claims, they could submit it on February 7.

"The application is dismissed. As far as CWG scam is concerned, I am not passing any order now. The date fixed for further evidence, if any, will be February 7," the court said.

The complainants had alleged that despite massive corruption in the Games-related works, probe agencies have not been probing all the cases.

They alleged contracts were awarded for Games-related projects without following any procedure.
