In potentially more trouble for Suresh Kalmadi, the Public Accounts Committee of Maharashtra legislature has recommended a criminal offence to be registered against the Organizing Committee of the 2008 Commonwealth Youth Games headed by the suspended Congress MP for alleged misappropriation of funds.

PAC Chairman Girish Bapat told the legislative assembly that Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan had given the Organizing Committee three months' time to submit the final statement of expenditure, failing which criminal offence will be filed against Kalmadi.

"The stipulated three months time is over. Some papers have been received and the government should go ahead with filing of a criminal offence," Bapat said.
