Sagar Dhankar murder case
According to the charge sheet filed by the Delhi Police in the Sagar murder case, Olympic medalist Sushil Kumar and his associates allegedly assaulted wrestler Sagar Dhankar and two of his friends, Sonu and Amit Kumar on the intervening night of May 4 and 5 in 2021. Sagar succumbed to the injuries later. A video surfaced on social media purportedly showing Kumar and his associates allegedly hitting another man with sticks.
Police investigation revealed that Sagar and his friends were kidnapped from two different places in Delhi and brought to the stadium, after which the gate was locked from inside and the security guards were asked to leave. In its final report of 1,000 pages, the police said, “In the stadium, all the victims were surrounded and all the accused beat them badly. All the victims were beaten with ‘lathis’, ‘daands’, hocke sticks, baseball bats, etc. for about 30 to 40 minutes.
Investigation of the case revealed how people from both camps of wrestlers were involved in the racket of buying, selling, occupation and extortion of disputed land. It also came to light in the investigation that people from both camps of wrestlers were associated with gangsters Kala Jathedi and Neeraj Bawania.
