Paris Olympics 2024 continues to be a nightmare for the Indian wrestlers, with the latest reports claiming the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) will punish the female grappler Antim Panghal over her disciplinary violation at the Summer Games.&nbsp;

Although earlier reports suggested that the Indian governing body is contemplating banning her for three years for her actions, the latest word suggests the IOA will stick with punishment and not a ban.

The reports of IOA handing Antim a three-year ban for allowing her sister to enter the Olympic Village on her ID card, leading to France Police summoning them for questioning, did rounds on social media, the official X handle of the Indian Olympic Contingent – Team India, reverted quickly to clarify the stance.

“IMPORTANT: IOA refutes reports that a ban has been imposed on wrestler Antim. It requests media persons to please check with the IOA leadership before posting such reports,” Team India’s post read in response to&nbsp;a&nbsp;PTI post claiming IOA is planning to ban Antim for a disciplinary breach.

Paris Olympics 2024: IOA to punish, not ban, wrestler Antim Panghal over disciplinary breach – Report

England captain Owen Farrell's Rugby World Cup future is hanging in the balance once more after World Rugby said on Thursday it will appeal a Six Nations Rugby independent Judicial Committee decision to overturn his red card against Wales. Farrell, who has had several suspensions related to tackle technique in his career, was expected to receive a minimum four-game suspension for the act of foul play. But he was surprisingly let off the hook by the Judicial Committee on Wednesday, who agreed with the flyhalf that the offence warranted a yellow card only.

Farrell&nbsp;was sent off&nbsp;- a yellow card upgraded to red via the new review system -&nbsp;after smashing his shoulder into the face of Wales forward Taine Basham in the sort of no-arms tackle that got him a four-game ban this season playing for Saracens. The Judicial Committee decision caused uproar on social media, with ex-players and player welfare advocates almost unanimous in agreeing it set a bad example at a time when the long-term effect of head injuries is in the spotlight.

"World Rugby has today confirmed to the Rugby Football Union and Six Nations Rugby that it will exercise its right to appeal in regard to the Owen Farrell disciplinary decision following a careful review of the independent Judicial Committee's full written decision received on 16 August," World Rugby said. "Having considered the full written decision, World Rugby considers an appeal to be warranted. In line with provisions set out under Regulation 17, an independent Appeal Committee will be appointed to determine the matter at the earliest possible opportunity."

The statement added that while World Rugby "fully supports the important role that an independent disciplinary process plays in upholding the integrity and values of the sport", it is clear they too believe the judgement sends the wrong message. "Player welfare is the sport’s number one priority, and the Head Contact Process is central to that mission at the elite level of the sport," it continued.

Any suspension Farrell receives could potentially see him miss a number of England’s pool matches at the Rugby World Cup. They have two remaining warm-ups against Ireland and Fiji, with their first two World Cup games against Argentina and Japan crucial for Steve Borthwick’s side. England also have Samoa and Chile in their group.

World Rugby to appeal England captain Owen Farrell's disciplinary decision

Saudi National Bank's chairman Ammar al-Khudairy resigned days after the Credit Suisse buyout which took place earlier this month, as per the statement released by the Saudi stock exchange.

Saudi National Bank was Credit Suisse's main shareholder before its collapse. The Saudi bank's board of directors "accepted the resignation" of Ammar al-Khudairy "due to personal reasons", read the statement.

<h2>Disciplinary action against Credit Suisse</h2>

Meanwhile, Swiss financial regulator FINMA stated that managers of Credit Suisse may face disciplinary action after the second largest bank in Switzerland was rescued by UBS last week.

Speaking to Swiss newspaper NZZ am Sonntag, FINMA President Marlene Amstad said that it was "still open" whether they will start new proceedings, however, the main focus of the regulator was on "the transitional phase of integration" and "preserving financial stability".

Responding to whether FINMA is considering holding current managers of Credit Suisse accountable for the bank's fall, Amstad stated that it is "exploring the options".

"CS had a cultural problem that translated into a lack of responsibilities," said Amstad, adding, "Numerous mistakes were made over several years".

Six public "enforcement proceedings" have been conducted by FINMA against Credit Suisse in recent years, said Amstad. "We have intervened and used our strongest instruments," she added.

Amstad further defended the decision of Switzerland to write down Credit Suisse Additional Tier 1 (AT1) debt's 16 billion Swiss francs to zero which was part of the forced rescue merger.

"The AT1 instruments contractually provide that they will be fully written off in the event of a trigger event, in particular the granting of extraordinary government support," said Amstad.

"The bonds were created precisely for such situations,” she added.

In another interview with the Swiss newspaper SonntagsZeitung, FINMA's CEO Urban Angehrn defended the role it played in handling Credit Suisse before the takeover.

"We intervened consistently in these cases, used our instruments, and they had an effect. We do not run the bank, that responsibility lies with the board of directors and the management of the bank,” he said.

Credit Suisse was purchased by UBS for 3 billion Swiss francs ($3.26 billion) a week ago.

Lawmakers in New York on Tuesday voted to repeal an old law which protects the disciplinary records of officers from the public.

State governor Andrew Cuomo said that he plans to sign the bill into law this week, which will attempt to counter police brutality.

The murder of George Floyd in the United States has triggered protests not only in the country, but across the world. Protesters are demanding justice for Floyd while calling for an end to systemic racism which targets black people across the globe.

The governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo recently said that state legislators are coming up with an overhaul of criminal justice, which could pave the way for nationwide reform.

Derek Chauvin, the 44-year-old police officer who knelt on Floyd was charged with second and third-degree murder, with his previous bail set at $1 million. However, on Tuesday, the bail was raised by $250,000 to $1.25 million.

The package of bills will focus on curbing police excesses and abuses, and by banning the “chokehold” which led to the death of Floyd.

"If they pass the bills that we've discussed, I will sign the bills, and I will sign them as soon as they're passed," Cuomo said in a briefing.

The bill constitutes a bigger package of reform measures in the police force.
