CBI fails to name Kalmadi in FIR

New Delhi, Nov.25 (ANI): The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) today failed to name Commonwealth Games Organising Committee chairman Suresh Kalmadi in its FIR despite having evidence against UK-based firm AM Films.

Earlier on Monday, Delhi court remanded T S Darbari, Sanjay Mahendroo and M Jayachandran to three days Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) custody in connection with the alleged irregularities in the Queen's Baton Relay (QBR) event in London last year.

While Darbari and Mahendroo have been in CBI custody since their arrest on the November 15, Jayachandran was arrested on the November 20.

The investigating agency produced the three before Special CBI Judge A S Yadav.

The CBI, while pleading for further remand of seven days for Darbari and Mahendroo, submitted that they are not cooperating with the investigation and they are not forthcoming in their replies to the queries posed by it.

Both are already facing charges of violation of Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) and have been questioned by Enforcement Directorate. (ANI)
