On Tuesday, one of those implicated denied the claims to be made during an hour-long Panorama programme. The other could not be contacted immediately.
Bulgarian International Olympic Committee (IOC) member Ivan Slavkov said he and an agent had been launching their own counter-operation to catch people trying to “entrap” Olympic officials.
In the most damaging scenes from the programme, already the subject of an IOC investigation, Slavkov is shown discussing ways to secure votes for 2012.
The programme also shows Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) director general Muttaleb Ahmad explain how he can influence IOC votes, stirring memories of the Salt Lake City corruption scandal that rocked the movement six years ago.
