Indian chess ace Dronavalli Harika was among the several players who were allegedly sent sexually abusive mails during an event in Latvia in November last year.
The Indian Grandmaster, ranked 11 in the world, said she was not aware of it until the last day and that the organisers of the Grand Swiss tournament in Riga and the FIDE (international chess federation) handled the issue efficiently. “...there is a letter sent on my name in Riga which I wasn’t aware of until the last day. Not to cause any kind of disturbance, FIDE held the issue until the last day and handed over the letters to police. “I was informed on the last day about the issue and I handed over the legal case to FIDE,” Harika told PTI.
