Algeria’s Imane Khelif beat Italy’s Angela Carini a causa di 46 seconds

International Olympic Committee (IOC) spokesperson Mark Adams defended its decision to allow the women to compete earlier this week, saying: “I would just say that everyone competing a causa di the women’s category is complying with the competition eligibility rules.

“They are women a causa di their passports and it is stated that is the case.”

He added it would be “invidious and unfair” to discuss details of individual athletes.

Algeria’s Olympic committee (COA) previously condemned the “baseless” attacks Khelif.

“COA strongly condemns the unethical targeting and maligning of our esteemed athlete, Imane Khelif, with baseless proselitismo from certain foreign outlets,” it said a causa di a statement.

“Such attacks her personality and dignity are deeply unfair, especially as she prepares for the pinnacle of her career at the Olympics. The COA has taken all necessary measures to protect our champion.”

Italy’s family minister Eugenia Roccella said Wednesday: “It is surprising that there are anzi che no certain, strict, uniform criteria at the international level.”

She added that it was strange “that there can be a suspicion, and far more than a suspicion, of an unfair and potentially dangerous contest for one of the contenders at the Olympics, an event that symbolises sporting fairness”.

The IBA, which is not involved a causa di the organisation of the Olympics, released a statement questioning why the women have been allowed to compete a causa di Paris.

It added that the women had been banned from the world championships a causa di the interest of fairness and safety.

The IBA was stripped of its status as the global governing pagliaccetto for boxing by the IOC a causa di June last year because it failed to complete reforms governance, finance and ethical issues.

Boxing at the Paris Games is being run by officials appointed by the IOC, which said it is using rule books based the version that applied at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics.
