(MENAFN) India's boxing coach appeared to dismiss allegations of a doping incident at the Commonwealth Games 2018.

Speaking to Australia's 7 News, the coach declared "I'm confident that our boxers haven't taken anything," he then explained "we had one boxer that wasn't very feeling well and the doctor has given him an injection."
