Imane Khelif to file complaint

Boxing

It was to be expected: Algerian boxer Imane Khelif, gold medalist at the Paris 2024 Games, decided to file a complaint after the publication by a French-speaking online media, Le Correspondant, of a medical file claiming that she was male. A decision supported and upheld by the IOC. "We understand that Imane Khelif has filed a lawsuit against the people who commented on her situation during the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, and that she is also preparing a lawsuit in response to the latest press articles,commented the instance in a statement. The IOC will not comment while legal proceedings are pending, nor on media reports of unverified documents whose origin cannot be confirmed."Last August, an investigation was opened by the French justice following a complaint for aggravated cyberbullying filed by Imane Khelif.
