In the wake of allegations of mass scale corruption in the recently concluded Commonwealth Games, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) of India Monday raided the Commonwealth Games Organizing Committee office here and registered two cases.

"The teams of Central Bureau of Investigation are conducting raids at the Organizing Committee office near Jantar Mantar and the houses of several officials of the committee," a CBI official said.

According to sources in the CBI, the agency has also registered cases against T.S. Darbari and Sanjay Mahindroo, who were allegedly involved in the Queen's Baton Relay scam.

The Organizing Committee for the Commonwealth Games paid AM Films, an Indian-owned firm, over 450,000 pounds for services during the Queen's Baton Relay function in London in October allegedly without following proper tendering procedure and paper work.

The October 3-14 Commonwealth Games held here were mired in controversy due to corruption allegations and unwarranted delays.
