Semenya's right to fair hearing on sex eligibility rules violated - ECHR

Caster Semenya wins partial victory at ECHR against World Athletics regulations. The European Court of Human Rights ruled that her right to a fair hearing was violated by the Swiss Federal Supreme Court. Semenya, a double 800m Olympic champion with differences of sexual development (DSD), has been fighting rules restricting testosterone levels for female track events. The ECHR found Switzerland's 2020 ruling lacked rigor under Article 6, but other complaints under Articles 8, 13, and 14 were deemed inadmissible. The decision may not immediately affect DSD athlete restrictions but highlights the ongoing battle for athlete rights.
