“The argument on charge on the CWG TSR scam will be held from Feb 1,” said Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Special Judge Talwant Singh, adding that the case will be taken up on daily basis from Friday.

The court directed the accused be brought to court everyday at 10 a.m. It as asked counsel to complete the scrutiny of documents by Jan 31.

The court also allowed the plea of accused A.K. Madan, promoter of Faridabad-based Gem International firm, to visit a private hospital here for medical tests Jan 17 under judicial custody.

The CBI in its first charge sheet in the case against former CWG Organising Committee chairman Suresh Kalmadi and 10 others described him as a prime accused and the mastermind in the corruption case related to financial irregularities in awarding the Rs.141 crore contract for the TSR system.

The accused officials and two companies were charged under various sections of the Indian Penal Code for cheating, criminal conspiracy and forgery and under the Prevention of Corruption Act.
