"Sorry For What Happened But We Have To Follow Rules": World Wrestling Body Chief To NDTV

As India waits for the results of wrestler Vinesh Phogat's hearing at the Court of Arbitration of Sport (CAS), the United World Wrestling president Nenad Lalovic shared an important insight as far as the entire weigh-in controversy is concerned. Lalovic, in an exclusive chat with NDTV, expressed his sympathies over the entire incident that saw Vinesh being disqualified from the Paris Olympic Games on the morning of her gold medal bout.

Vinesh's weight was reportedly just 100 grams over the 50kg mark that she needed to touch in order to be eligible for the final bout. But, she had to be disqualified.
