“If the government fails to arrest him by June 15, we will re-launch our agitation by June 17. The agitation will be started either at Jantar Mantar or Ramlila Maidan,” Punia stated.

“If Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh is not arrested at the earliest, the six other complainants will also be forced to change the statement the way a minor girl changed her statements. He is a powerful man and the minor girl’s father had already stated that they are under pressure and the same way these other six complaints are also undergoing similar circumstances,” he stated.

“There is huge pressure on complainants and justice will be ensured only after Brij Bhushan’s arrest. He is influencing the probe and a strong chargesheet is required to send him behind bars. The complainants are receiving threat calls and they are in trauma,” he stated.

“The union ministers told us that the former WFI chief will be arrested after police found sufficient evidence against him. We are on our own collecting evidence against him and providing the same to Delhi police,” he added.

Punia additionally alleged {that a} lady wrestler, who was taken by police ot the WFI workplace to recreate the crime scene was shocked to see Singh there.

He expressed shock {that a} lady participant needed to go to the WFI workplace to recreate the scene.

“The woman player who accompanied Delhi police to recreate the crime scene against Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh is mentally upset and the complaints are going through a mental trauma,” he stated.

He stated hat Singh had contacted them in January after they began an agitation in opposition to him.

“Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh had told the agitators that he is ready to accept whatever Bajrang says and he requested us to take a step back but we continued our fight against this strong man. We don’t know politics and I assure you that we are fighting for our daughters’ justice,” he stated.

Sakshi Malik stated, “The minor girl, who had changed her statement, is undergoing trauma and other complaints will also bow down if Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh is not arrested at the earliest. We will play the Asian games only if the entire case is completed after a fair probe.”

“If Brij Bhushan was sent behind bars, the minor girl might not have changed her statement. Her father is receiving threats from Bhushan’s men,” she added.

International wrestling referee, Jagbir Singh, informed the gathering in Sonepat that Singh had harassed girls gamers throughout a trial on March 25 final 12 months in Lucknow and he had seen ugly behaviour of Singh in 2013 throughout a match in Kyrgyzstan.

Farmer leaders and Khaps from Haryana, Punjab, UP, Rajasthan and Delhi attended the assembly.

Singh, a Bharatiya Janata Party parliamentarian who headed WFI for 12 years, has refuted all the fees in opposition to him.
