Delhi Police SIT Likely To Submit Investigation Report In Court By Next Week
Olympic medal-winning wrestler Sakshi Malik encouraged WFI president Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh to take a lie detector drug test if he is sure of his innocence on Wednesday after seven wrestlers accused him of sexual harassment.
The protesting wrestlers added that if Singh is a part of their organisation, they will oppose the competitions being held.
“I challenge the WFI president to take a Narco Test. We are also willing to take the test. Let the truth come out in the open, who is the culprit and who is not,” Malik said at a press conference here.
“We want all competitions to take place under the ad hoc panel of IOA. If the WFI chief is involved in any way, we will oppose it,” said another Olympic medallist Bajrang Punia.
The wrestlers also decided to wear black armbands on Thursday to protest the “slow pace of investigation” against Singh.
The protesters have been demanding the arrest of Singh for the alleged sexual harassment and intimidation of seven female wrestlers, including a minor.
Delhi Police filed two FIRs against the WFI president on April 28.
