@MHSN.....your take on above story , can she be completely disqualified after reaching final bout , or logically shown as VIN and be given silver

wow that's unbelievable. :yikes::cry::cry: but if the whole news of being overweight is correct I'm afraid the rest is true too, if you are overweight you are disqualified unless you completely withdrew from the 2nd day with medical reasons which is not the case here. 

 

I'm just speechless. this is really a rookie mistake :cry: I have to say I can't remember this ever happened in serious international competitions, let alone the most important competition

 

most people make up a fake medical document for this case, UWW easily accepts this. but based on the link you posted looks like the Indian team wasn't prepared for this

Before weigh in, if she would have claimed that she is injured, then she could have got a 🥈 and her opponent in the final would have got a 🥇 through walkover.

And Vinesh has redemption. She had to withdraw from Rio QF due to knee injury. Today, she has qualified for final. 

No there is no redemption only more heartbreak.

Nobody gets silver, and only gold and bronze will get awarded I guess. 

I'm not so sure if they really do that. but let's wait and see . the rules are not very clear for a situation like this

 

there is still nothing on both UWW and IOC websites

Have these situations not happened before?

Wrestling switched to 2-day format not long ago. So, previously in the 1 day format, you played all matches on the same day and there was only 1 weigh-in. And as @MHSN said if a player was failing the weigh-in on 2nd day, they would declare the player injured and bank the Silver medal/5th place.
