Olympian Sushil Kumar, who was arrested and later charge-sheeted by the Delhi Police`s Crime Branch in connection with the murder of wrestler Sagar Dhankar, has now started imparting wrestling training at Tihar Jail complex. Sushil Kumar, presently lodged at jail number 2 of the Tihar for alleged involvement in the murder of Dhankar, who was training at Delhi`s Chhatrasal Stadium, is now training fellow inmates, a jail official said.

Another official requesting anonymity said that it all started a week back and Kumar was allowed to train five to six inmates who are interested. "It was the decision of the jail authorities. We wanted him to teach his wrestling skills to others. We approached him and he agreed to our proposal. He also showed willingness," said the official.
