Caster Semenya considers legal action against the Guardian newspaper
Caster Semenya, the South African athlete at the heart of a gender controversy that has divided athletics, is considering legal action against The Guardian newspaper, who published an alleged exclusive interview on Saturday quoting her as saying: ``People want to stare at me now''.
Caster Semenya, the 18-year-old South African whose runaway victory in the 800 metres was overshadowed by allegations that she is a boy and not girl, was so devastated by the hurtful accusations that she threatened to boycott her medal ceremony, it was revealed on Friday.
