Olympics: IOC warns Indian officials
IOC has threatened action against ‘illegitimate individuals’ who claim to represent the suspended Indian body.
MUMBAI:
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has asked its recognised Indian members to contemplate taking legal action against officials of the country’s suspended Olympic association for misrepresenting the office. In a letter sent to Randhir Singh, secretary general of the IOA during the previous regime, the IOC has threatened action against ‘illegitimate individuals’ who claim to represent the suspended Indian body. “These illegal actions which obviously violate all IOC directives and decisions are aggravating the situation of the suspended Indian Olympic Association,” said IOC director general Christophe De Kepper. “All individuals involved (directly or by complicity) will be held responsible and the IOC will reserve the right to take any action against them.”
