This leaked report has raised a discussion among people, and many have argued that Khelif shouldn’t have been eligible to compete in the women’s category at the Paris 2024 Olympics and that the boxer should return the gold medal.

Furthermore, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has previously cleared Khelif to compete based on her documentation identifying her as female.

Despite the claims, the report hasn’t been verified yet, and it is unsure whether Imane Khelif is a man.

In response to the recent controversy, Khelif has decided to take legal action and is reportedly suing individuals who have shared and commented on the leaked report asserting her right to privacy and defending her eligibility to compete.
