New Delhi, Oct 12: With about Rs 123 crore of dues to British broadcaster SIS Live stuck with Indian government, Britain has pressed for “speedy conclusion” of investigations related to alleged corruption in Commonwealth Games while assuring its full support.
“We fully support your investigations into allegations of corruption around the Commonwealth Games and are happy to assist in any way we can,” British High Commissioner to India Richard Stagg said in a letter to Defence Minister A K Antony.
In the communique, released by UK-based broadcaster SIS-live, Stagg also sought early resolution of issue involving pending payment to the firm, which was given Rs 246 crore contract to broadcast the mega sporting event held here last year.
