Saeed Mawlai: They asked me to play in the semifinals

Saeed Mawlai, the Iranian golden judoist, said in an interview with Iran International News Channel: "Salehi Amiri, the head of the National Olympic Committee and the deputy sports minister, called on him to beat his opponent in the semi-finals to avoid an Israeli judoka."

Mawlai did not return to Iran after his "suspected defeat" in the World Championship against his Kazakh opponent. He is currently in Germany, saying he did not apply for asylum in Germany because he had been granted a multi-year residence permit and had been participating in the German League for a long time.

The Iranian judoka also said she did not ask the head of the World Federation for help but to seek asylum, now that Iran is not in agreement with the World Federation to help her fight freely in the Tokyo Olympics.
