Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh has welcomed the Supreme Court's order to file a police case into allegations of sexual harassment made against him by the country's top wrestlers.
Mr Singh told reporters the wrestlers should have waited for the report of a committee that was tasked to look into the matter before they decided to sit on a protest in Delhi's Jantar Mantar.
"I am happy with the judiciary's decision. The Delhi Police will investigate the allegations and I am ready to cooperate with them in every possible way. No one is bigger than the judiciary in this country. The order has come to file an FIR (first information report). The government had also said it had no objection to filing an FIR. I am not larger than the Supreme Court. I welcome the order," Mr Singh told reporters.
The Delhi Police told the Supreme Court today that a case will be filed against the influential chief of the WFI, who is also a BJP MP.
