Controversial athlete, rape accused Pinki sent to jail
Dr Sukanta Sil at the CMHO said that he was awaiting the order and would conduct the tests after that. Pramanik's bail plea was also rejected as she would now undergo fresh gender verification test by the government hospital. The former middle-distance runner, who retired from the international scene after the 2006 Doha Asian Games, was found to be a male in the test reports at a private nursing home yesterday.
"The reports conducted by us show that Pramanik is a male," Subrata Mukherjee of Uma Nursing Home, where the test was conducted, told media. Pramanik was arrested from Baguiati flat after the athlete's live-in partner, a divorcee and a mother of one, in her complaint alleged that Pramanik had been repeatedly raping and torturing her for several months.
