The Department of Sport, Arts and Culture announced its support for Caster Mokgadi Semenya as she returns to the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights in France.Last year, the ECHR ruled that Semenya’s human rights had been violated since the introduction of limits on testosterone levels.
‘The DSAC notes the hearing scheduled for Wednesday, 15 May 2024, where the Grand Chamber will evaluate the matter presented by the Swiss government in relation to the European Court of Human Rights’ July 2023 decision. ‘This ruling reaffirmed the international legal requirement for World Athletics to refrain from engaging in discriminatory practices, barring exceptional circumstances.’, the CGE calls on the public to rally behind Semenya and other affected athletes.
‘A favourable outcome will be of massive importance to athletes with differences in sexual development worldwide.’
