Brij Bhushan Singh



New Delhi, July 18, 2023 – In a significant development in the high-profile sexual harassment case, Brij Bhushan Singh, a prominent industrialist, was granted interim bail by a Delhi court today. The court’s decision comes after Singh filed for bail on the grounds of medical reasons and lack of substantial evidence against him.


Brij Bhushan Singh, the Chairman of a leading conglomerate, was accused of sexual harassment by a former employee in a complaint filed earlier this year. The alleged incident in 2022 triggered a wave of public outrage and drew widespread media attention.

On Tuesday, the Rouse Avenue Court in Delhi granted interim bail to WFI President and BJP MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh in the matter of female wrestlers’ sexual harassment for a period of two days. Another defendant in the case, Vinod Tomar, was also given provisional release by the court. A bail bond of $25,000 was used to obtain the interim bail.


On the other hand, Singh’s supporters and legal team have welcomed the court’s decision, stating that it affirms the principle of “innocent until proven guilty.” They maintain that Singh’s deteriorating health condition warranted his release and that he would fully cooperate with the investigation to clear his name.

As the case proceeds, all eyes will be on the court to deliver justice and ensure a fair trial that upholds the rights of the survivors while considering the accused’s right to a fair defence. The interim bail granted to Brij Bhushan Singh marks a crucial juncture in this high-profile case, leaving many questions unanswered as the legal process unfolds in the coming weeks.


In response to a complaint made by female wrestlers under sections 354 (assault or criminal force to women with intent to outrage her modesty), 354A (sexual harassment), 354D (Stalking), and 506 (criminal intimidation) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), the Delhi Police filed a chargesheet against Singh and Tomar on June 15.
