Wakanoho demands to be reinstated after being banned from sumo
Russian sumo wrestler Wakanoho may be sorry about smoking marijuana, but he is unwilling to accept the Japan Sumo Association’s decision to ban him for life. Here’s a video of him announcing his intention to sue his way back into the sumo world:
“I know I did something wrong, and for that I am truly sorry. I will be filing a lawsuit so I can return to sumo wrestling.”
Wakanoho believes he has a legitimate case. He was a minor at the time of the incident, he was not formally charged, and that the JSA has never banned a wrestler for something they did in their private life.
I wonder if Roho and his brother will also take the JSA to court?
