In a recent development, a Delhi court has taken action against former Wrestling Federation of India chief and current BJP MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh in a sexual harassment case. The case was lodged by six female wrestlers who accused Singh of misconduct. The Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Priyanka Rajpoot, has ordered the framing of charges against Singh for criminal intimidation. However, in a separate complaint filed by one of the six women wrestlers, the court has discharged Singh.
The court has set a date of May 21 to formally frame the charges against Singh. Additionally, charges have also been ordered to be framed against Vinod Tomar, the co-accused and former WFI assistant secretary. The Delhi Police had filed a charge sheet on June 15, charging Singh, who is a six-time MP, under sections 354, 354A, 354D, and 506 of the Indian Penal Code.
This decision by the court comes as a result of the serious allegations made by the female wrestlers against Singh. It is a significant step towards seeking justice for the victims of the alleged sexual harassment. The court has taken these charges very seriously and is making sure that the accused are held accountable for their actions.
The Indian Penal Code has strict laws in place to protect against sexual harassment and intimidation, and it is heartening to see the court taking swift action in this case. It sends a strong message that such behavior will not be tolerated, and those responsible will face consequences for their actions. The victims of this case have shown immense courage in coming forward and speaking out against their alleged abuser, and their bravery should be commended.
As the case continues to unfold, it is important to remember that everyone is innocent until proven guilty. The court will conduct a fair and impartial trial, and the accused will have the opportunity to defend themselves. Let us hope that justice is served, and the victims find closure and peace in this difficult time.
