Equestrian Official Resigns from Olympics
Published on Monday, June 25, 2012 in 2012 London
A top British official has resigned from the committee overseeing the London 2012 equestrian events in a row over public access to pre-Games horse inspections.
Hugh Thomas, event director of the Badminton horse trials and a designer of past Olympic courses, told Reuters the decision by organizers not to admit the public was 'disgraceful'.
A spokeswoman for organizers LOCOG confirmed he was no longer involved as a technical official.
