Medical Report Confirms Algerian Boxer Imane Khelif as Male, Calls to Strip Olympic Gold Medal

Nov 4, 2024, 03:02 PM

A leaked French medical report from 2023 has confirmed that Algerian boxer Imane Khelif, who won a gold medal in women's boxing at the 2024 Paris Olympics, is biologically male. The report, prepared by top endocrinologists, revealed that Khelif has XY chromosomes, no uterus, internal testicles, a micropenis, and male testosterone levels. This revelation has sparked outrage and calls for Khelif to be stripped of the gold medal. Critics argue that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) knowingly allowed Khelif to compete in the women's category, thereby endangering female athletes and compromising the integrity of the competition.
