Commissioner of Delhi Police / SHO,

NEW DELHI: At the top of the medal tally and the undisputed champions of Commonwealth Games, the Australian team sadly didn't show any sporting spirit when their cricket team lost the Test series to India in Bangalore and resorted vandalizing electrical fittings and a washing machine at the Games Village, reports The Times of India.

Enraged over the humiliating loss in Test cricket, some athletes, according to highly-placed sources in Delhi Police, went berserk, destroying electrical fittings and furniture in their tower in the Games Village on Tuesday and Wednesday, the report said.

Policemen posted there say the Australian athletes shouted slogans against batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar, who played a pivotal role in ensuring India's victory in the Bangalore match, and flung a washing machine down from the eighth floor of their tower.

Their hooliganism started on Tuesday when Sachin scored a double century. "The house-keeping staff tried to stop them but to no avail, " said a senior police officer handling security inside the Village. Stunned by the little master's stellar performance, they first damaged electrical fittings and fixtures in their block.

On Wednesday, when India brownwashed Australian 2-0 to keep the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Oz athletes reportedly threw a washing machine down from the eighth floor, said a senior officer. Mercifully, no one was injured.

Delhi Police, which received a complaint about this vandalism, tried to downplay the incidents to prevent them from snowballing into a diplomatic embarrassment for Australia.

On reports that some Australian athletes went berserk inside the Games Village after their cricket team lost the Test series to India, a senior officer posted there said that they have not received any complaints from the Organizing Committee which owns the property inside the Games Village. "Therefore, we have not registered any case, " said a senior police officer.

Police spokesperson Rajan Bhagat said: "No complaint has been received. We have found a broken washing machine from the block where the athletes were staying. We are trying to establish as to how the machine reached there."

OC officials didn't pursue the matter. "We have not given any complaint and the matter has been sorted out after discussion with the Australian chef de mission, " said an official.

When asked whether the Australian athletes have tendered any apology, he declined any comment.

Hence I being an citizen of India comes forward to lodge online complaint against all offenders and make humble request to the Commissioner of Delhi Police to pass an appropriate orders for concerned SHO to investigate and book all offenders as per law of the land.
