New Delhi: India`s star wrestler Sushil Kumar has won gold medal in the German Grand Prix Freestyle and Greco Roman tournament in Dortmund.

Besides Sushil, Rahul Balasaheb Aware also bagged the gold medal in the 55 kg freestyle category as India signed off with five medals, including two gold, one silver and two bronze.
Rajiv Tomar won the silver medal in the 120 Kg freestyle division, while Ravinder Singh and Ramesh Kumar bagged the bronze in the 60 kg Greco Roman and 74 kg freestyle categories respectively.
Sushil missed the Asian Championships last month in Pattaya because of weight problems.
