Indian athletes were facing investigations on Saturday after the discovery of syringes in their accommodation at the Commonwealth Games in Australia. A cleaner at the athletes' village tipped off authorities about the syringes, which will now be analysed, Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) chief executive David Grevemberg said. He added that the Commonwealth Games has a "no-needles" policy for athletes — and "zero tolerance" for doping. The Games will open in Gold Coast on Wednesday.
