WFI has demanded a CBI inquiry into the Narsingh doping issue and Prasood explained why the wrestling federation wanted the police case to be handed over to the central investigating agency.
"In India, when an FIR is filed, action has to be taken in 90 days. That's what the Constitution of India says. But CAS said we don't want your Constitution. Haryana Police has not arrested anyone, that's why we're urging the CBI to probe the matter," he said.

"We'll also take action if Narsingh is found guilty. Otherwise, we'll appeal if the police can find the culprit and the court finds him guilty. We'll act after a court action.
"If someone is arrested and action is taken against them the ban (by CAS) can be reduced," he added.
Two-time Olympic medal winner Sushil Kumar had moved the court after WFI had refused a trial bout between him and Narsingh after the latter had earned a quota place for the country, but the WFI official queered the pitch by saying Rana had stood second in pre-Games trial behind the shamed wrestler.
"Sushil Kumar is a great wrestler. He knew all procedures. Praveen Rana was second in trial after Narsingh, so he would have taken us to court if we had named Sushil as a standby for Narsingh," was the strange explanation given by Prasood when queried why Sushil was not made a standby.
Sushil won bronze and silver medals in the 2008 and 2012 Olympic Games, but WFI preferred Narsingh to represent India in the 74-kg weight class instead of the decorated grappler as the dope-tainted grappler had clinched the country's quota by winning the bronze at the last world championship.
