Imane Khelif, a fighter embroiled in an Olympic gender controversy, has once again been accused of being biologically male. Khelif secured a gold medal for Algeria at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, just a year after being barred from competing by the International Boxing Association (IBA).

In 2023, the IBA prohibited Khelif from participation following tests conducted in New Delhi that allegedly indicated the presence of DNA consistent with a "male."

These test results were communicated to the International Olympic Committee (IOC), which has since taken over the regulatory responsibilities for Olympic boxing from the IBA, and they recommended that Khelif be disqualified from competition. Nevertheless, Khelif's status as a female passport holder allowed her to compete in Paris.

An examination of Khelif's medical results from the 2023 World Championships

In a groundbreaking report, 3 Wire Sports has now disclosed the purported sex-test results from the 2023 World Championships.

According to the medical report, Khelif is identified as biologically male. American journalist Alan Abrahamson noted that the boxer was disqualified in March 2023 after allegedly failing a test administered in New Delhi.

The published document summarizes the findings regarding Khelif as "abnormal," emphasizing that "Chromosome analysis reveals male karyotype."

A karyotype refers to the complete set of chromosomes in an individual. In Khelif's situation, the IBA has stated that the boxer's chromosomal pattern is XY, which is indicative of male biology.

The purported test results are presented on the official letterhead of Dr. Lal PathLabs in New Delhi, which is recognized by the International Organization for Standardization, a Swiss entity, and accredited by the American College of Pathologists.

This contradicts statements made by IOC spokesperson Mark Adams during a tense press conference at the Olympics in Paris. He described the investigation that resulted in Khelif's ban as "ad hoc" and "not legitimate".

In response to the leaked report, one user on X remarked: "We all knew that."

A second user expressed, "This is shocking," while a third user commented, "Never believe anything 'leaked.'"

Khelif has consistently denied being a biological man and has even implicated Elon Musk and J.K. Rowling in a lawsuit claiming cyberbullying.

The 26-year-old has vowed to continue her efforts, with aspirations for another gold medal at the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028.

Nevertheless, the World Boxing Organization has ruled that Khelif cannot participate in future competitions as a woman unless she first undergoes the same chromosome testing that has already led to her disqualification on a global scale.
