Delhi court rejects Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh plea for further probe into women wrestlers' sexual harassment allegations

Singh had filed the application before the Court on April 18, the day it was scheduled to pronounce order on framing of charges against him. He raised the defence of alibi and told the court that he was not in Delhi when one of the wrestlers who has complained against him was allegedly sexually harassed. The legislator, therefore, asked for directions to investigate the aspect and also place on record the Call Detail Records (CDRs). The application was opposed by the Delhi Police, which called it a delay tactic.
