Christine Ohuruogu insists she will defend her Commonwealth title at the Games in Delhi and refuses to "jump on the bandwagon" and pull out over security fears.

The England team will make a final decision on their participation in the Games in India in September, but security is once again in the forefront of everyone's minds after the attack on the Togo football team's bus at the African Nations Cup in Angola.

Paula Radcliffe and Jessica Ennis have already announced they will not compete in Delhi, albeit for sporting rather than security reasons, but Olympic 400 metres champion Ohuruogu fully intends to compete as things stand.

She told The Times: "No one wants to send people into an area that's unsafe, but I hope the Indian authorities make the necessary preparations.

"I'm sure they will because not to provide the necessary security measures would be negligent.

"I don't think that will happen because it would be a huge embarrassment if they don't have what's required. We had the same thing before the Athens Olympics (in 2004) when there was a bomb threat and then there was talk of a boycott before Beijing (in 2008).

"You have to be sensible and not jump on the bandwagon and say, 'I'm not going'."

Ohuruogu admitted her main focus this year is the European Championships in Barcelona but that the Commonwealths definitely form part of her plans.

"I'm going (to Delhi) as defending champion and don't want to go in half-hearted."
