In a shocking revelation, a tearful Vinesh Phogat on Wednesday alleged that WFI president and BJP MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh has been sexually abusing women wrestlers for several years and sought the intervention of the Prime Minister and the Home Minister.

Vinesh Phogat has also alleged that many coaches have also exploited women wrestlers. He said that some women have approached women wrestlers at the behest of the WFI president. Vinesh Phogat says she herself has not faced sexual abuse but has received death threats because she dared to draw the Prime Minister’s attention to several issues affecting Indian wrestling when she met him after the Tokyo Games .

Addressing the media, Vinesh Phogat said, “I know at least 10-12 women wrestlers who have told me about the sexual abuse they faced at the hands of the WFI president. They told me their stories. I will name them now. Can’t take it but I can definitely reveal the names if we meet the country’s prime minister and home minister.”
