A Delhi court on Friday framed charges against former Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) chief and BJP MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh in the sexual harassment case involving five women wrestlers.

He has also been charged with the offence of outraging the modesty of women.

The court has found sufficient material to frame charges against Brij Bhushan.

The court said, “Charges were framed against Brij Bhushan under Sections 354 and 354-A in respect of each victim.”

The court acquitted Brij Bhushan of the charge levelled by the sixth wrestler.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
