Video footage captured during the race appears to show Said making aggressive maneuvers against competitor Janna Eliwa in the final stretch.

The video showed Said forcing Eliwa off the road, ending in Eliwa's subsequent crash.

Eliwa sustained a suspected concussion and broken ribs from the incident.

As a result, the Egyptian Cycling Federation responded with a one-year suspension and a fine for Said.

The situation escalated when Eliwa's sister filed a formal complaint with the public prosecutor, accusing Said of attempted premeditated murder.

Public controversy arose after a photo emerged showing Said in official uniform as part of the Egyptian cycling team for the Paris 2024 Olympics.

In light of these developments, the Ministry of Youth and Sports has released a statement, requesting a detailed report from the Egyptian Olympic Committee to re-evaluate Said's eligibility for participation in the Olympics.

The ministry emphasized the need to adhere to both local and international regulations, taking into consideration the ethical rules governing the sports system and international sports charters and standards.

The decision on Said's Olympic participation will likely hinge on the outcome of the investigations and the Egyptian Olympic Committee's response to the ministry's request.
