The Paris Olympics take place from 26 July to 11 August 2024
French police are searching the headquarters of the organisers of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
"Paris 2024 is co-operating fully with the investigators to facilitate their investigations," a spokesperson for the organising committee told the BBC.
It is unclear at this stage what prompted the police raids.
Reports in French media suggest financial police are involved, linking this to earlier preliminary probes into how contracts have been awarded.
The French police have made no comments on the issue.
The 2024 Olympics take place from 26 July to 11 August, with the Paralympics running in September.
