Cyclist lodges FIR against coach accused of 'inappropriate behaviour'

NEW DELHI: A national-level cyclist, who had accused the head coach of "inappropriate behaviour" during a foreign exposure trip to Slovenia, on Saturday lodged an FIR against him after the Sports Authority of India's (SAI) Internal Complaints Committee (ICC) suggested her to do so.

In a statement issued by the SAI, it stated: "The national-level cyclist has lodged an FIR on Saturday against the national cycling coach for his inappropriate behaviour during a foreign exposure trip in Slovenia. SAI had investigated the case through its Internal Complaints Committee which in its preliminary report submitted on June 8, 2022 stated that the case was prima facie established and the incidents that the athlete had mentioned in her complaint were correct. Following the report that was submitted by ICC, SAI terminated the contract of the coach, who was recommended by the Federation, on June 8, 2022 with immediate effect."
