Minor girl’s uncle claims wrestlers are misleading the family

Amit Pehalwan, who claims to be the uncle of a ‘minor’ girl, has hit out at the protesting wrestlers, saying they are misleading his family and using them to level allegations against Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh. Wrestlers Vinesh Phogat, Bajrang Punia and Sakshi Malik, who are demanding the arrest of Wrestling Federation of India chief Brij Bhushan, have accused him of sexually abusing seven female wrestlers, including a minor.

Amit claimed that the wrestlers were cheating and the age of his brother’s daughter was changed to 16 years to misuse the POCSO Act (Protection of Children from Sexual Offences). He said the girl was born on February 22, 2004. He said, “These wrestlers are using my family. I belong to the family of the minor girl whom they have called the victim. She is my niece and I am her uncle.

He said, “Some Punjab players, Sakshi and Vinesh are misleading my brother. They are shedding crocodile tears. We want justice. Why is Vinesh Phogat doing this? They misled my brother, can do anyone. First they sat on dharna in January-February but the matter got complicated. “He said,” After this they used another trick and played the women’s card. Their aim is to get Brij Bhushan arrested by any means.” He claimed that he had inspired his niece to take up wrestling. He said that politicians and wrestlers are all playing ‘games’. He also said that nothing had happened to his niece.
