V2010-ISU Keeping 2010 Olympics Construction Free From Organized Crime

Forget Olympic cost overruns and the premature burn on the construction contingency fund. Something far more wicked might be coming this way.

Vancouver 2010 Integrated Security Unit is on the lookout for the bad guys. V2010-ISU includes forensic accountants, construction specialists, and undercover officers to protect the Games from what the IOC has described as a constant threat from organized crime: Inflated contracts, theft, and immigration irregularities, topped up with sub-standard services, materials, and labour practices.

There haven’t been any criminal charges so far. The ISU has apparently provided the IOC with “information” although it’s all very secret and hush hush. Hopefully this isn’t because they’re embarrassed about $700 toilet seats or million dollar washers.
