Deepak Punia’s Coach's Accreditation Cancelled By OIympics Body

Deepak Punia’s coach Murad Gaidarov’s accreditation was cancelled by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) after he “yelled” at a referee after Deepak’s match in the ongoing Tokyo Olympics.

Indian Olympic Association (IOA) Secretary-General Rajeev Mehta said that a complaint was made against the coach and they received an email from the IOC about his accreditation termination.

Rajeev Mehta said, “After the bout, Deepak's coach yelled at the referee. A complaint was filed into the international body, later the international body wrote to IOC and now IOC has taken action against him.”
