A Delhi court acquitted former WFI chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh on August 9, 2026, citing a lack of evidence in the sexual harassment case filed by wrestlers.
The court ruled that the allegations were part of a politically motivated conspiracy, dismissing the charges brought by the protesting athletes against the BJP leader.
The verdict marks a significant legal victory for Singh, though the complainants have indicated they will challenge the decision in the High Court.
