Delhi Police has issued a Look-out-Circular (LoC) against the two-time Olympic medallist Sushil Kumar who is absconding after a 23-year-old former junior national champion, Sagar Rana, was beaten to death during a brawl at the Chhatrasal Stadium parking area.
After the incident, an FIR of murder, abduction and criminal conspiracy was registered against Kumar.
Additional DCP (North-West district) Dr Guriqbal Singh Sidhu has confirmed that they have issued LoC against Sushil Kumar.
“We have recorded statements of all the victims and they all made allegations against Sushil Kumar. We are conducting raids to nab Sushil Kumar,” Sidhu said.
The victims in their statements have also alleged that Kumar and his associates abducted Sagar from his house in Model Town to teach him a lesson for bad mouthing him in front of other wrestlers, police said.
On Tuesday, Sagar Rana, who had competed in the 97-kg Greco-Roman category, was beaten to death in a clash involving two groups.
Rana was a former junior national champion and is part of the senior national camp.
“We have found during investigation that a quarrel had allegedly taken place between Sushil Kumar, Ajay, Prince Dalal, Sonu, Sagar, Amit and others in the parking area of the stadium,” Sidhu said.
