YES YES YES YES YESYESSSSSSThe IOC tells The Epoch Times new evidence warrants investigation
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) confirmed to The Epoch Times today that it has asked the International Gymnastics Federation to investigate the Chinese gymnastics underage fiasco, following new evidence that at least two gymnasts competed under the legal age in the Olympics.
After the initial dismissal of the claims, the IOC said in an email that there have been “additional elements on this subject.”
Emmanuelle Moreau, IOC’s Media Relations Manager in Beijing, said in an email to The Epoch Times that, “the IOC has therefore asked the International Gymnastics Federation to endeavour to find out more. We understand they are doing so immediately.”
More evidence has emerged in the last two days that two of the girls, He Kexin and Yang Yilin, were 14 years old and not 16, as claimed by the Chinese authorities.
Pretty sure this is related to the two links I posted yesterday on page 41. Using some chinese search engine you can find cached files from a chinese .gov site listing he kexin as 14.usmarine wrote:

"This news comes on the heels of another Times report that details the findings of a New York computer security expert who found official Chinese documents that list He's age as 14 years and 220 days."

lol epoch times. what a joke paper.
If they were underage, the medals should be void. But my best guess is the incident will never be investigated and will fade from spotlight.

So then every Olympics ANY country had an athlete caught cheating should lose all their medals? Do you know how many medals we'd lose by that ideology?War Man wrote:
