Chinese tennis star Peng Shuai has denied accusing a senior Communist Party leader of sexually assaulting her and insists she is living freely
In a video, Peng said"people have many misunderstandings" about a post alleging sexual assault on social media site Weibo, which had been quickly removed, but WTA remains unconvinced.
However, the comments in her first media interview since her accusations did not ease worries at the Women's Tennis Association, which said Monday that it still had "significant concerns about her well-being and ability to communicate without censorship or coercion"., a Singaporean Chinese-language newspaper, Peng denied making the allegation.
Dressed in a red T-shirt and dark down jacket, both with "China" emblazoned on them, Peng told Zaobao that the email was legitimate and written "entirely of my own free will".Hours earlier, unverified images posted online by a Chinese state–affiliated journalist showed Peng speaking with Yao and two other Chinese sports figures– Olympic sailing champion Xu Lijia and retired table tennis player Wang Liqin.The WTA said it was still not convinced of Peng's wellbeing.
