New Delhi, Dec. 17 (ANI): Indian athlete Santhi Soundarajan, who bagged silver medal in the 800m race in Doha Asian Games is likely to be stripped of her medal as she reportedly did not have the 'sexual characteristics of a woman'.
Reports said that Shanthi was picked up for a 'test' at the Games, after a fellow athlete 'doubted her of being a woman' and lodged a complaint.
However, the Indian contingent list shows Santhi as a female and her profile reveals that she was born on April 17, 1981. She weighs 54 kg and her height is 161 cm.
A resident of Puoukkottai in Tamil Nadu, Santhi picked up the silver medal clocking 2 minutes, 3.16 seconds beating Kazakhstan's Viktoriya Yalovtseva. Bahrain's Mariam Yusuf Jamal had bagged gold in the race. (ANI)
