Muhammad Abdallah Kounta social-media controversy
In August 2024, the federation suspended sprinter Muhammad Abdallah Kounta after social-media posts were reported as containing hate-inciting statements targeting France, white people, Christians, and Jews, together with support for Hamas. The federation president reported the matter to the Public Prosecutor and its disciplinary committee, which was expected to assess further sanctions.
