Holy crap... a Belarussian Track and Field athlete, Krystsina Tsimanouskaya, apparently wanted to claim asylum after criticizing her Olympic National Team coaches for mismanagement and that in turn sprung up a 'national smear campaign' against her in her home country. Her coaching staff is allegedly 'forcing' her to go to the airport for a flight back to Belarus. But she's currently speaking with Japanese police at said Airport about her options.
