The International Olympic Committee are being sued for letting gender-row boxers Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-ting compete in Paris 2024.
Algerian Khelif and Yu-ting of Taiwan both won gold medals at last summer’s Olympics despite being disqualified from the 2023 World Championships for failing gender eligibility tests.
Now the International Boxing Association – the Russian-led body that administered those disputed 2023 tests, has launched legal action against the IOC.
Citing President Trump's recent executive order banning transgender women from female sports in the USA, the IBA said they were filing complaints to the attorney generals of Switzerland, France and the USA ‘regarding the IOC’s actions that facilitated the participation of these ineligible athletes’.
The IBA claims that, according to Swiss law, ‘any action or inaction that poses a safety risk to competition participants warrants investigation and may serve as grounds for criminal prosecution’.
The organisation have also offered to financially support any Paris 2024 boxers who wish to pursue legal action.
‘IBA will provide free-of-charge comprehensive legal support to our boxers in these lawsuits, as this is a clear violation of human rights, an outrage towards the female boxers, and simply a crime that should be punished accordingly.
‘In my personal opinion, (IOC president) Thomas Bach should take full responsibility for this, as he was in charge when it happened, and he needs to compensate the damages caused, if the court or any other instance rules this.’
The IOC stripped the IBA of their status as the sport’s world governing body in 2023 citing concerns over ethics and finances.
