Leaked medical report ‘proves Imane Khelif is biological male’
Imane Khelif’s sex-test results from the 2023 World Championships have been published for the first time, with the medical report appearing to indicate that the boxer is biologically male.
Just 36 hours after World Boxing ruled that Khelif, a hugely controversial Olympic champion in women’s boxing at last summer’s Paris Games, would need to undergo sex screening to be eligible for any future appearances in the female category, the document at the heart of this extraordinary saga was released into the public domain.
The document published on the 3 Wire Sports website summarises the findings on Khelif as “abnormal”, stating: “Chromosome analysis reveals male karyotype.”

Does this mean that Imane loses the gold medal from the 2024 Olympics?

Not sure R2, but Caster Semenya hasn’t been stripped of his Olympic medals.
World boxing mandates that all athletes have to take a genetic sex test to compete in boxing. The media is framing it like it’s only Khelif that has to take the test. Also you will see TRA’s call this invasive and imply that women will have to show their genitals or worse be vaginally probed. Not true at all it’s a cheek swab.
World boxing is in charge of the 2028 Olympics, if khelif refuses his career is over.
