Answer 1

Answer:

We do believe that the court’s ruling in the Salt Lake City Bribery case was wrong.

We make a claim that the bribery was explored in the Salt Lake City case and the decision was highly influenced by the bribery act. Following are the key reason for that as below

• High amount of bribery was given to the key members of the IOC by the Salt Lake City bidding group. This information is well spread in the newspaper and spread all around the world at that time.
• Prior to this time, the city was participated four times for the game secure, but it failed all the four times and this time it won. This is the point to be considered that the city has won when the bribery issues has been spread in the world market.
• Expulsion of key people from the IOC team happened due to their engagement in the bribery case and allegations were reported against these people.
• Post these case, new rules were developed for the IOC and started in action.

So all this points states that such act cannot happen if there is no issue of bribery. But this is not true, bribery was explored and because of bribery only this case was reported and highlighted in the world media. IOC members were is faced expulsion from their roles. Thsu we can say that court;s decisionw as wrong and they have protected people who have explored bribery.
