New Delhi:
Suresh Kalmadi, the disgraced former boss of the Commonwealth Games Organising Committee, today said that he wasn't solely responsible for the decisions taken in regard with the Games and that all involved must be questioned.
Kalmadi spoke after emerging from a second round of questioning by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) at its headquarters in the national capital.
He said that he was quizzed on the contract handed out to AM Cars and AM Films during the Queen's Baton Relay in London held ahead of the Commonwealth Games.
Kalmadi added that he was satisfied with his clarifications given to the CBI.
On March 11, a five-member CBI team had conducted a search of his locker at the Parliament street branch of UCO bank in New Delhi.
Top Kalmadi aides including Lalit Bhanot, the former Secretary General of the Organising Committee, and VK Verma, who was the Director General of the Organising Committee, have been arrested in the last few months for alleged financial irregularities in various cases pertaining to Commonwealth Games. They will be produced in the Patiala House Court today.
In November 2010, Congress axed Kalmadi as secretary of its Parliamentary Party. And then in January this year, he was fired as Chairman of the Organising Committee.
