# Delhi court acquits Brij Bhushan in wrestlers’ harassment case 2026-08-09T20:40:48+00:00 | India | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet A Delhi court on Monday acquitted former Wrestling Federation of India president Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh and co-accused Vinod Tomar in a sexual harassment case filed by six women wrestlers. The defence lawyers said the court found the allegations “false and fabricated” and part of a “deep conspiracy” that appeared politically motivated. The court noted material contradictions in witness statements, lack of contemporaneous complaints, and two witnesses who turned hostile, claiming they were asked to falsely implicate Singh by wrestlers and coaches at Mahadev Academy in Rohtak. The prosecution had charged Singh under IPC Sections 354, 354A and 506. India Today reports the court concluded the prosecution “miserably failed” to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt. ## Coverage - ndtv.com - indiatoday.in Tags: Brij Bhushan Singh, Delhi court, political conspiracy, sexual harassment allegations, wrestlers protest Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/delhi-court-says-brij-bhushan-allegations-false-a-political-conspiracy/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
