Description
The IOC would support an inquiry into the allegation of sexual assault made by Peng Shuai against a top-ranking Chinese politician -- if she calls for one, its president Thomas Bach said Thursday.
Speaking on the eve of the Beijing Winter Olympics opening ceremony, Bach confirmed he would meet the tennis star while he is in the Chinese capital and said he hoped to find out more about her "physical integrity and her mental state". IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
