Sexual Harassment Case: Delhi High Court Issues Notice On Brij Bhushan Singh's Plea For Early Hearing In Case Against Framing Of Charges

The Delhi High Court has issued a notice to the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) and its president, Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, in a sexual harassment case filed by six female wrestlers. The wrestlers have accused Singh of sexual harassment and misconduct. The court has sought responses from the WFI and Singh, directing them to file their replies within four weeks. The court’s notice follows a petition by the wrestlers seeking action against Singh and the WFI for failing to address their complaints. The petitioners have alleged that the WFI’s internal complaints committee did not conduct a fair inquiry into their allegations. The court’s intervention aims to ensure a thorough investigation and appropriate action in the case, highlighting the judiciary’s role in addressing issues of sexual harassment and ensuring justice for the victims.
