Iman Khalif takes legal action over cyberbullying: 'Harassment will remain the biggest stigma of these games' – Paris 2024

Imane Khelif, the Olympic champion in the under-66kg boxing category who has been the subject of controversy over her gender, has filed a complaint for cyberbullying. This was stated by lawyer Nabil Boudi, who said that the Algerian boxer has taken legal action. “The gold medalist at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, boxer Imane Khelif, has decided to fight a new battle: the battle for justice, dignity and honour. Khelif has referred the case to the Paris Council of Ministers, which has filed a complaint for aggravated cyber attacks.” “The criminal investigation will determine who started this misogynistic, racist and sexist campaign, but it will also have to look into those who fueled this digital lynching,” reads a post published by Nabil Boudi on social media, after her opponent left her in tears, prompting many to question her gender.
