Olympic medallist Sushil Kumar, who has been arrested in a murder case, had a video of the incident recorded to terrorise the wrestling circuit in the city, the police said on Sunday. A court has sent Kumar to six-day police custody.
"Sushil had asked his friend Prince to make that video. He and his associates thrashed the victims like animals. He wanted to establish his fear in the wrestling community," the police told the court.
Sushil Kumar was on the run for nearly three weeks before being arrested on Sunday. He is allegedly involved in the death of a 23-year-old wrestler at the Delhi's Chhatrasal Stadium on May 4.
