Imane Khelif, an Algerian boxer, dominated the Paris Olympics 2024 by winning the women’s 66kg gold medal, despite many social media users questioning her eligibility for the Games. Khelif, who has been described as a biological man by many, is once again embroiled in controversy after a leaked medical report verified that the boxer is, in fact, male. Former India spinner Harbhajan Singh has also responded to the latest situation, requesting that the Olympics organizers return the gold medal.
Harbhajan Singh’s Comment On Imane Khelif
The secret medical report, which French journalist Djaffar Ait Aoudia first obtained, states that the boxer has “internal testicles and XY chromosomes.” The medical report also mentions a condition called 5-alpha reductase deficiency. “Take the Gold back @Olympics This isn’t fair,” Harbhajan Singh wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
Piers Morgan, a journalist, also responded to the news, which has gone viral on social media, stating, “Confirmation of what some of us said at the time: Khelif is a biological man.” The gold medal should now be withdrawn and given to the best woman.”

The medical assessment is thought to have been written by professionals from the Kremlin-Bicetre Hospital in Paris and the Mohamed Lamine Debaghine Hospital in Algeria. The paper was initially drafted in June 2023.
The study details Khelif’s biological characteristics, such as the presence of internal testicles and the absence of a uterus. According to Redux, an MRI result reveals the presence of a tiny penis. The International Boxing Association (IBA) banned Imane Khelif in 2023. She was prevented from competing in the World Championship Gold Medal fight in New Delhi.
