“MY DAUGHTER IS A WOMAN” Olympic Boxer Imane Khelif’s Mother Defends Her Against Gender Allegations, Firmly Stating She Has “Nothing Between Her Legs” (Page 3 ) | September 18, 2024

The family’s comments come after a joint statement from the IOC and the Paris 2024 Boxing Unit, published in early August. It made reference to “a sudden and arbitrary decision by the IBA” in relation to the 2023 tests and said: “Towards the end of the IBA World Championships in 2023, they were suddenly disqualified without any due process”.

IOC spokesman Mark Adams earlier slammed the process behind the IBA’s actions regarding Khelif and Lin. “I need hardly say if we start acting on suspicions against every athlete of whatever, then we go down a very bad route,” he said, adding that he considereed the IBA tests “not legitimate”.
