I was in their support too until i saw few of their interviews where they themselves denied that no one would dare misbehave with them (because they are wrestlers and would beat them if they did). In another one she said that the abuse happened abroad but changed the name of the place twice or thrice when caught that the guy wasn't even there. Then i read how she acted so entitled during Olympics. She demanded she stay in a room at a separate floor from the rest of the Indian team, amongst other things and finally got what she demanded. Wore some piece of clothing with her sponsor's logo which went against the rules of Olympic association and the indian head had to bear the brunt. There are many instances where she was happily touching feet of that guy and calling him like her father, even during the times she claimed she was being abused by him, which is quite strange.
The main reason, is their demand that they get direct entry in Olympics without having to play the national matches (they themselves publicly demanded that). Also they want haryana wrestlers full control over the wrestling federation. Lots of internal politics going on.
I'm all for support of women in such cases but NOT when the case doesn't seem genuine, which it doesn't going by evidences that have come to light recently. Even a person with high integrity like PT Usha isn't on their side (she's president of Indian Olympic association) who had tried solving this matter many times.
I would wait for a full investigation.
