The Delhi police on Thursday filed a chargesheet against former Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) chief and BJP MP from Kaiserganj, Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, for relatively minor offences such as outraging the modesty of a woman and stalking. At the same time, police have approached another court for the cancellation of a more serious case, involving allegations of sexually harassing a minor wrestler, as she has now given a fresh statement refuting those allegations.
Special Public Prosecutor Atul Srivastava confirmed that the police have filed a cancellation report of over 500 pages in the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act case filed on the basis of a minor wrestler’s complaint against Mr Singh, in the Patiala House court. That case will be heard on July 4.
