Updated : Dec 4, 2016
A national level shooter has accused her coach, also a former shooter and Olympian, of spiking her drink at a party and raping her. The shooter, in her complaint to Chanakyapuri police station, said that she has been practising with the accused for about two years. The woman also said that she has been training for the national championships at the shooting range of the Sports Authority of India and the accused, who had competed in international events, used to guide her. The accused, who is also an Arjuna awardee, was a Sports Authority of India (SAI) coach. The National Rifle Association of India (NRAI) said this is why it cannot take a call on the accused's future. "This is a private case between two individuals, which is being investigated by the police. We shall co-operate with the cops if we are asked to," an NRAI official said.
