Hockey India (HI) has lodged an official complaint to International Hockey Federation (FIH) about the ill-timing of Sardar Singh's interrogation by Yorkshire police during the Hockey World League in London last month in relation to a year-old sexual assault case.
In the letter sent to International Hockey Federation (FIH) CEO Jason McCracken on Wednesday, HI president Mariamma Koshy referred to a June 19 incident where acting on a complaint filed by an England junior-level hockey player on June 17 relating to a year-old sexual assault case, Sardar was summoned to Leeds for questioning.
As it was on the eve of India's match against arch-rivals Pakistan, the hearing was postponed to June 20.
