SARITA DEVI DISOWNS THE BRONZE IN ASIAN GAMES

L. Sarita Devi of India recently lodged a complaint against the match officials, claiming that they have given a biased decision in the favour of a  South Korean boxer in the semi final match of 60 kg weight category bout of the ongoing 'Asian Games'.

L. Sarita Devi is the 4 times Asian champion, appeared for the first time in the last Asian Games. Being a mother of a 1.5 years old child, she was unable to look after her child as she was training so hard to win a gold medal for her country in the ongoing Asian Games, but after the yesterday's match result,she couldn't believe that she has lost. Many viewers who were present there claims that she was in the complete control of the match till the second round, but in thethird round tables may have turned.

L. Sarita Devi lodged a complaint within the half hour after the referees decision, but her protest was later ignored by the IBA ( International Boxing Association ), dishearten by all this ongoing controversy she first refused to accept the bronze medal during the medal ceremony and later took it from the officials and gave it to the Korean boxer.
