		Severely tortured and humiliated by police, country's one of the top athletes Asif Hossain Khan is contemplating to return his Commonwealth Games gold medal to the authority.

		Other than giving financial help, the BOA officials must have to try convince Asif not to give up one of the most prestigious medals won by a sportsman, who is not only going to miss the Asian Games in Doha next December but also unlikely to take a rifle in hand in six months.
