PARIS - Imane Khelif, the Algerian boxer who defied a row over her gender eligibility to win Olympic welterweight gold, is taking legal action over media reports about leaked medical records, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) said on Nov 6.

Reports published in France this week claimed Khelif, 25, has XY, or male, chromosomes.

The gender controversy ignited at the Paris Games in August when Khelif defeated Angela Carini in 46 seconds in her opening bout, with the Italian reduced to tears and abandoning the fight after suffering a badly hurt nose.

It led to a row that attracted comments from politicians and personalities ranging from Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling.
