Imane Khelif of Algeria, the Olympic boxer at the center of a gender eligibility controversy, has filed a complaint for "aggravated cyber harassment" against the social media platform X with the online hate center of the Paris prosecutor's office.

Her lawyer said Saturday in a statement that the investigation will focus on "who was behind" and those who took part in what he described as a "misogynist, racist and sexist campaign" during the Games, including "important political figures."

This comes as the welterweight fighter won gold medal at the Olympics on Friday amid debate over her sex, particularly after her first opponent withdrew the bout. Khelif dominated her three other matches, winning all of them 5-0.

Last week, the head of Safe Sport Unit at the International Olympic Committee (IOC), Kirsty Burrows, had filed a complaint for death threats and online harrassment with French authorities after defending Khelif in a press conference.

Both Khelif and featherweight gold medallist Lin Yu-Ting of Chinese Taipei (Taiwan) have had their qualifications to compete in a women's event put in doubt after the International Boxing Association (IBA) disqualified them last year from its world championships based on unspecified eligibility tests.

All boxers competing in women's events officially complied with regulations set by the Paris 2024 Boxing Unit. The IOC claims that there could be a policy review ahead of the 2028 Games if there is a "scientifically solid system" to determine sex — if the sport is included on the Los Angeles Olympics amid a governance crisis.

Sadly for women's boxing, the IOC was complicit in allowing genetically men to box against women — and unsurprisingly win all their bouts in unanimous decisions — in what was promoted as the first-ever gender-equal Olympics. Though Khelif is not trans, the Algerian has all advantages of being a male in the ring.
