"The minor wrestler's father has said that he was under a lot of pressure from all sides, that his family is under pressure. Media didn't show this part.. it only showed that the statement has been withdrawn but not the reason why it was done," Punia told ANI. "Her father has said that he is under pressure and that the entire family is in depression. He said if something happens to him, who will bring back the father? People can be made to say anything under pressure," he further said.
