Previously, IOA decided to fly wrestler Antim and her support staff back home. According to a complaint by the French authorities, Antim's sister was trying to impersonate her and get into the Athletes Village using the wrestler's accreditation card.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"IOA refutes reports that a ban has been imposed on wrestler Antim. It requests media persons to please check with the IOA leadership before posting such reports,\" IOA wrote on X.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The security staff at the Athletes Village detained her and Antim was called for a statement.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Antim represented the country in the women's 53kg weight class and lost her pre-quarterfinal bout 0-10 to Turkey's Zeynep Yetgh on Wednesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Antim initially claimed that everything was settled, and she would be getting her accreditation back soon.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"I will get my accreditation soon and my sister will be released in a few minutes,\" an emotional Antim had told IANS.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
However, the IOA seems to have taken serious note of this breach of security and protocol and took strict action in the case.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"I will get my accreditation soon and my sister will be released in a few minutes,\" an emotional Antim had told IANS.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
