Wrestlers demand arrest of accused official, protests to continue.
TL;DR Summary
Two cases have been filed against the chief of the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI), Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, after allegations of sexual harassment were made against him by top wrestlers. The Delhi Police filed the cases after the Supreme Court ordered them to do so. One of the cases is under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, which gives no scope for bail. Despite the assurance of police action, the wrestlers are continuing their sit-in protest demanding the "immediate arrest" of the WFI chief.
