India suspended by IOC over vote

THE IOC suspended India's national Olympic committee yesterday because of government interference in its election process.

After months of warnings, the IOC executive board imposed the sanction when the Indian Olympic Association failed to comply with the world body's demands for holding independent elections. Suspension means the Indian body will stop receiving IOC funding and its officials will be banned from attending Olympic meetings and events.
