French authorities have opened an investigation into an online harassment lawsuit brought by Algerian Olympic boxing gold medalist Imane Khelif. Khelif was targeted by a torrent of misogynist, racist and sexist attacks over her “gender eligibility” to participate in the 2024 Paris Olympics. False claims and hate speech that Khelif was transgender or a man were posted online, including by tech billionaire Elon Musk and author J.K. Rowling, who are both named in Khelif’s lawsuit. Though not named in the complaint, Khelif’s lawyer said Donald Trump could also potentially be investigated over his social media remarks about the athlete. Most of the attacks came from X, formerly Twitter, which is owned by Musk.
