Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Priyanka Rajpoot issued this interim order, emphasizing that the wrestler is scheduled to appear in court on Friday to record her statement.

The directive came in response to applications from senior advocate Rebecca John, representing three wrestlers who reported that their security was withdrawn on Wednesday night. The court required the police to submit a detailed report on the security withdrawal by Friday.
