| Thirty locations in and around Delhi are currently being raided by Income Tax officials.
Among them, the office of senior BJP leader Sudhanshu Mittal, whose relatives were allegedly given major contracts for different aspects of the Commonwealth Games.
Sudhanshu Mittal's link to the Games contract is through his nephew Vinay Mittal whose firm Deepali Design and Exhibits won one of the most lucrative deals worth over Rs. 200 crore in a consortium with a foreign partner. Vinay Mittal was given a contract for treadmills, chairs and umbrellas at heavily marked up prices.
Searches and surveys are also on at various locations in Ludhiana and Chandigarh.
The massive charges of corruption that prefaced the Games are being investigated through a series of parallel inquiries by different agencies. The Prime Minister's Office has made it clear that those responsible for financial violations will be identified and held accountable.
On Monday, Income Tax officials visited the offices of the Organising Committee, headed by Suresh Kalmadi. Sources say financial documents linked to the broadcast rights for the Games are being studied for alleged tax evasion. The terms of the same deal -won by a London-based company - are also being examined. Early investigations allegedly show that the tax statements of the Indian office of that company show discrepancies in crores.
