Some staff members at Mr Singh's Delhi residence have also been called in for questioning by the police, they added.

Earlier the Bharatiya Kisan Union said they have postponed their plan to head to Jantar Mantar on June 9 to protest the alleged inaction against Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh.

"Talks are ongoing with the government. They (protesting wrestlers) have met the Home Minister. We have paused the June 9 protest demonstration on their request. We will support them in whatever future date they decide," Rakesh Tikait said.
