CWG-PULLOUT

Pistol shooters Patricia Boulay of Kingston and Alan
Markewicz of St Albert, Alberta were scheduled to leave for
Delhi on Wednesday, but were told to wait at least two more
days.
The Canadian women's field hockey team, which was
scheduled to leave Thursday evening, has been told to delay
its trip for two more days.
Four of Canada's mission staff were sent as scheduled,
with another seven told to wait 24 hours.
Deacon said there are issues with hygiene, plumbing and
electricity in some of the rooms in the village.
"We cannot put (athletes) in rooms unless we are
confident they are safe and healthy," she was quoted as
saying.
The build-up to the Games has been marred by complaints
over unhygienic conditions at the Games Village, and to make
things worse a foot over bridge collapsed near the main
stadium on Tuesday, injuring 27 people.
Commonwealth Games Federation chief Michael Fennell has
already shot off a letter to Cabinet Secretary detailing the
"unlivable" conditions at Athletes' Village which along with a
footbridge collapse near the main Games venue had triggered
withdrawal of two high-profile athletes besides pull out
threats from some countries.
Several nations, including Canada, Scotland, Northern
Ireland and New Zealand, have expressed concerns about delays
in the completion of the athletes village. PTI
