Officials who led Tokyos successful bid to host the 2020 Olympics have been cleared of any illegal activity by a Japanese investigation, following revelations that the city had paid more than $2m to a company linked to the son of the disgraced former world athletics chief Lamine Diack.

A report published on Thursday by an independent panel appointed by the Japanese Olympic Committee (JOC) said the $2.3m (£1.74m) payment to Black Tidings, a Singapore-based consultancy, was legitimate and had been made in return for consulting services.
