#556 - Olympics Women’s Boxing Sparks Gender Debate & National Day Decoration Defaced with Naughty Word

Yah Lah BUT...

Algerian boxer Imane Khelif has been at the centre of a gender controversy at the Paris Olympics, with some accusing her of actually being a man competing in a women’s competition. Now that she’s claimed a gold medal, and subsequently filed a harassment complaint, we go through the nuts and bolts of the controversy. Closer to home, the police were called in over an act of vandalism on the Pandan Gardens Resident Network National Day decorations. A 23-year-old man is being investigated, but was this really something that required police intervention?
