It is known that on Monday, the Delhi Police had announced a reward of Rs 1 lakh for information regarding the whereabouts of Sushil Kumar who has been absconding for two weeks.

A reward of Rs 50,000 had also been announced for the arrest of his associate Ajay Kumar, who is also on the run in the case.
Last week, a Delhi Court had issued non-bailable warrants against Sushil Kumar and six others in connection with the brawl, days after a lookout notice was issued against the two-time Olympic medalist in the same case.
An incident of a brawl among wrestlers was reported on May 4 in which some wrestlers were injured and they had to be admitted to a hospital and one of them died during treatment.

Sushil has been India's most successful athlete, having won a silver medal in the 2012 London Olympics and a bronze medal in the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
