New Delhi: The CBI is looking at the possibility of registering a case for destruction of evidence as part of its probe into alleged irregularities in the conduct of the Commonwealth Games. Official sources said some of the crucial documents which could throw light on the Commonwealth Games deals have gone missing. The probe agencies fear that they could have been destroyed or hidden. Asked if the CBI is likely to register a case under Section 201 of IPC (causing disappearance of evidence of offence, or giving false information to screen offender), sources said investigations are on and the likelihood cannot be ruled out. "CBI is looking at various angles. Nothing cannot be ruled out as of now," a source said. Sources said that the key files, which contain important information on tendering, budgetary allocation and contract details, are missing from the Commonwealth Games Organising Committee (OC) office.
