“We gave them an office space, as they would be here for the time being, auditing all projects and contracts. There are 480 contracts that were signed in the run up to the Games,” said a senior OC official.

However, the OC did not take any investigation-related matter lightly. On Saturday, OC officials denied a team from the Central Bureau of Investigation access to Games-related papers, as the officers did not have identity cards.

“As there are multiple agencies involved in the probe, we cannot take any chances,” a senior OC official said.
