IOC RESPONDS TO BOXING GENDER TESTING SCANDAL

Maseru, Aug. 02 — The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has defended its decision to allow two boxers who failed a gender eligibility test to compete at the Paris 2024 Olympic games.

Alegeria’s Imane Khelif was disqualified hours before her gold-medal bout at the women’s World Championships in New Delhi last year after she failed to meet the International Boxing Association’s (IBA) eligibility criteria, that prevents athletes with male XY chromosomes competing in women’s events. . .
