Alan Abrahamson, an IOC press committee member, also confirmed Khelif’s chromosomal status, stating he had seen the tests from 2022 and 2023, which “concluded the boxer’s DNA was that of a male consisting of XY chromosomes.”
Smith and others have called for Khelif to be stripped of the medal, criticizing the IOC’s current policies. The controversy has sparked a global conversation about the standards and fairness in women’s sports.

Purportedly based on a leaked medical assessment authored by Young and an Algerian endocrinologist, Soumaya Fedala, the original report on a little-known French website detailed how Khelif allegedly underwent an MRI scan and genetic testing, which supposedly revealed that she has an XY difference of sexual development (DSD).
Women with some DSDs are often wrongly conflated with transgender women.
A screenshot from the assessment, which was glossed over in the original French report, showed that the doctors, Young and Fedala, judged Khelif to be female. "In view of the clinical history ... the female sex is always favored," the screenshot read.
When it was put to Young that his name was potentially being used to legitimize false information and further an anti-trans agenda, he told DW: "I think your statement perfectly reflects reality."
Khelif, who has never identified as anything other than a woman, has been approached for comment via her manager.
