New Delhi: Vinesh Phogat will now have to wait till August 16 to see if she gets the silver medal. The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has further delayed the verdict for her plea. This is the third time that the sports court has extended its time limit on the matter, India Today reported.

Phogat had originally challenged her disqualification from the Paris Olympics and had pleaded to be given a joint silver medal in the women’s 50kg category. The court on Tuesday announced via an official press release that it will be further delaying the verdict on the case where Phogat and the Indian Olympic Association has challenged the International Olympic Committee and the United World Wrestling’s decision.

“By application of Article 18 of the CAS Arbitration Rules for the Olympic Games, the President of the CAS Ad Hoc Division extends the time-limit for the Panel to give a decision until 16 August 2024 at 18h00 (Paris time),.” CAS’s ad-hoc division has said.
