Allahabad High Court raises safety concerns over male trainers coaching women in gyms

The Allahabad High Court expressed serious concerns about male gym trainers coaching female clients without adequate safeguards to protect their safety and dignity. The case involves allegations against a male trainer accused of caste-based slurs, physical abuse, and making obscene videos.

Justice Shekhar Kumar Yadav directed the police to verify if the accused’s gym is registered, whether the accused has been arrested, and if female trainers are employed.

The court will continue hearing the matter on September 8 to ensure proper safety measures for women gym-goers.
