ALBAWABA - Imane Khelif has caused a stir in recent hours, with rumors circulating that he will return to stalk the gold medalist at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
The focus was on speculations about the World Boxing Organization's plan to suspend Imane Khelif from competing for life and deprive her of her championships.
The speculations aroused significant outrage among social media users and sports fans, driving many to seek the truth behind these allegations.
The "Apost" website reports that Iman received a lifetime boxing ban, the removal of her medals, and a refund of $25 million in prize money.
However, the Associated Press claims that this information is false, and there is no indication that the World Boxing Organization made such a statement.
The newspaper reported that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has set a deadline early next year for a credible governing body to replace the International Boxing Association (IBA), and has already decided on the identity of the Algerian champion. The Algerian Boxing Federation has also joined the battle to rescue Iman Khalif's future, according to the agency.
According to official sources, the World Boxing Organization has not made any statements verifying or refuting these charges.
The British publication "The Sun" also stated that the claims are unfounded, classifying them as fake news, and that Khalif's titles and financial rewards would remain unaffected by these charges.
This comes after a series of problems and difficulties for Khalif, including claims about her body's nature and whether she had male hormones, which the Olympic Committee firmly denied.
The accusations extended beyond boxing to include criticism from global celebrities such as Elon Musk, whom Khalif chose to sue for abusing her.
Iman earned the gold medal in the 66 kg weight category in boxing at the 2016 Olympic Games in Paris, France.
The Algerian boxer also won the gold medal at the event, defeating Chinese boxer Yang Liu in the women's welterweight final.
