Wrestlers' Protest: Over 800 Civil Society Members Press for the Arrest of WFI Chief

The Wire Staff
Jun 16, 2023
'Our demand is simply to let the law of the country apply equally without regard to the position of a person, and that no one is protected by the government and be favoured to escape the usual application of the law,' they said in a statement.

New Delhi: As many as 848 prominent civil society members – including academics, lawyers, former ambassadors, social workers, among others – have signed a statement calling for immediate action against the Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) chief Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, who is facing allegations of sexual harassment.

“As citizens of a democratic country, we believe that the voices of all citizens are equal. Our demand is simply to let the law of the country apply equally without regard to the position of a person, and that no one is protected by the government and be favoured to escape the usual application of the law,” their open statement read.

The Delhi Police on Thursday, June 15, had filed a chargesheet against Singh, but also, additionally, filed a cancellation report in the POCSO case registered against him. The signatories of the letter objected to the cancellation report filed in the POCSO case.

They called upon the Union government to take action immediately and allow the arrest of “the perpetrator of such deplorable acts as required by the POCSO law” besides suspending his membership of the Lok Sabha.

The signatories also criticised the Union government for being “unmoved” by women wrestlers, whose protest has drawn support across the country as well as globally. They also hit out at the attempts made by the supporters of the government to “discredit the young women by spreading all kinds of confusing and misleading information through various media outlets”.

Former ambassador Madhu Bhaduri, Jagdeep Chokar of the Association for Democratic Reform, and academic Zoya Hasan are among the signatories.

Reproduced below are the full statement and the list of signatories.

Justice for women wrestlersA Call from and to the Civil Society

Justice for women wrestlers who have been protesting for several weeks is now a national issue which calls on all citizens of this country to stand with them and add to their voices for punishment to the perpetrator of sexual harassment: Brijbhushan Saran Singh. He continues to be in powerful positions even after legal cases have been filed against him. One of these cases pertains to POCSO (Protection of Children from Sexual Offences). Under this law, the accused should have been arrested without delay. However, this has not happened. The accused is free. He continues to hold his high position whereas the victims are facing charges on account of their peaceful protest. The women wrestlers who were protesting peacefully at Jantar Mantar for several weeks are not allowed to continue their peaceful protest there anymore. Their voices in distress have reached outside India. International support has started to come but the government within India is still silent and unmoved.

Attempts seem to have been made to discredit young women by spreading all kinds of confusing and misleading information through various media outlets. We believe that the wrestlers are truthful and honest about what they have stated in their public statements.

As citizens of a democratic country, we believe that the voices of all citizens are equal. Our demand is simply to let the law of the country apply equally without regard to the position of a person, and that no one is protected by the government and be favoured to escape the usual application of law.

We the undersigned impress upon the Government of India to take action immediately and allow the arrest of the perpetrator of such deplorable acts as required by the POCSO law, and suspending his membership of the Lok Sabha.

We also call upon all concerned citizens to stand resolutely with the wrestlers in these trying times which have serious implications for all women in the country.
