Post by inplainsight » Sat Jun 22, 2013 8:09 am

They have been suspended by NRAI, but why no police complaint?

I sincerely hope that the Athletes Commission, rips the guts out of the erring shooter(s). An example has to be set for others to be wary off in the future. A suspension/ban for two years should be handed out to them, with a lifetime probation period after the suspension period is over. Either the lout learns or is thrown out if he does not improve.

Forget suspension and probation. If the idiots cannot behave when they are representing the country, they should be banned for life from ever representing India again. Give someone, who is morally more worthy, a chance.
Bad behavior should have consequences.

:agree: such obnoxious behavior must be strictly dealt with, these type of people bring shame to our country, better to dump them and give deserving people a chance, discipline must never be taken for granted...

Ban them for life, take away their license and have the police charge them under all possible IPC section. That might deter others in the future.

First wearing Indian Color, a sportmen badge..these guys were expected to go extra mile to protect country honour ... punishment should be exemplery... so that these so called juniors donnt turn seniors. Worst is action has been initiated on complaint.. where were the officials at the first place?

If they are found out to be guilty, make examples of them.

I am quoting a portion of the news article , which pretty much explains it .
Of the two shooters in the dock, one is a junior national champion in double trap who hails from an influential political family.

Throw the guys out if true and trap shooters now these are chaps with means so is it sense of entitlement? I saw this attitude and issues years ago when I was member of shooting team

:agree: :agree:

There is unfortunately no shortage of perverts these days. Should these two jokers be found guilty, their "unique" qualities are not, unfortunately, in short supply, so they will hardly be missed. Banning them as XL suggests will prevent them from honing their "skills" while representing the Nation or representing those who enjoy the shooting sports.
