The top wrestlers from India said that the police had mistreated and assaulted them, which caused commotion at Jantar Mantar late on Wednesday night.
The wrestlers’ attempt to carry bedding to the protest location appears to have been the catalyst for the most recent altercation.
Sakshi Malik, the bronze medalist from the Rio Olympics, broke down in tears over the dispute with the police, and Vinesh Phogat was captured in a video from the scene shouting with the officials.
Vinesh said that her brother had been abused by an intoxicated police officer. She alleged that Sangeeta Phogat and her were shoved by a different police officer.
“The streets are damp because it rained today. We were working to transport a bed to the protest site for that reason.
They mistreat us. Bajrang Punia, a medalist from the Tokyo Olympics, told reporters, “This is how they appreciate daughters.
However, according to Delhi police officials, neither the police officer nor any of the protesters were assaulted.
There were several men who attempted to bring cots to the demonstration site, according to a senior police officer. They were combative when police questioned them about it, and the demonstrators joined them.
They unjustly restrained a police officer and declared him intoxicated. That is untrue. There are currently additional officers on the scene, and the situation is under control. No protesters were assaulted.
