Award-winning investigations. "The best documented Olympic journalist", according to IOC president Jacques Rogge. 14 Olympics. 32+15 IOC sessions. Bid maniac. FIFA and all sorts of Olympic crime.
corruption
Danish president Mads Freund is calling on the World Triathlon Congress in October to conduct an independent forensic investigation into the corrupt 2024 elections and to remove corrupt officials. The triathlon mafia "The Group" is fighting back and wants Freund removed.
fake governance
As minutes suggest, senior IOC member Ser Miang Ng, who is also Honorary Chairman of World Taekwondo's Kukkiwon, has obviously been campaigning for Virtual Taekwondo, a game developed by his children's companies – with the aim of it being included in the Olympic Esports Games and other events.

Olympiabewerbungskosten sollten um 80 Prozent gesenkt werden, lautete die Propaganda des DOSB. Alles Unsinn. Seit dem dubiosen Richtungswechsel von Michael Mronz und Thomas Weikert vor einem Jahr sind die Kosten explodiert. Der Auftakt zu einer kleinen erhellenden Serie – exklusiv für Abonnenten!

Next week, I will provide German readers with exclusive background information on the Olympic bid. Since dubious websites such as Insidethegames are spreading unsorted nonsense, a mixture of propaganda and AI hallucinations, I'm offering the English-speaking audience a brief summary in the meantime.
fake governance
The IOC and the International Hockey Federation (FIH) have been protecting Tayyab Ikram, the dubious Olympic wheeler-dealer, for many years. New allegations also weigh heavily on India's bid for the 2036 Olympic Games, where Ikram is allegedly cashing in as a lobbyist in a variety of ways.
fake governance
Der Deutsche Verband für Modernen Fünfkampf (DVMF) lebt noch. Nach achtstündiger Sitzung wurde einstimmig ein vierköpfiger Vorstand mit je zwei Vertretern der heftig zerstrittenen Parteien bestimmt. Kein Präsident, aber zwei Vizepräsidenten – Jan Langrehr und Lutz Keister – sowie zwei Referenten.
fake elections
Angesichts der Vorgeschichte und des dubiosen Geschachers mit Stimmenpaketen und Lizenzen, die sich kaufen lassen, sollte die Vokabel "Wahl" für den DVMF-Verbandstag am Sonntag besser vermieden werden. Welches Kaninchen zaubern Schormann, Veder & Co nun als Präsident aus dem Hut? Möbus oder Keister?

As expected, Swede Petra Sörling remains ITTF President (and IOC member ex officio). We're still awaiting the results of the investigations by the ITTF Integrity Unit, which is looking into the attempted coup at the ITTF Congress in Doha and the allegations of corruption against Khalil Al-Mohannadi.
corruption
Documents suggest that fake president Arimany, who scandalously serves as vice-president of the International Council of Arbitration for Sport, predetermined the World Triathlon election results in 2024. As things stand, he lied about it, claiming he was not involved in the election scam.

Die Kassen sind leer: Jan Veder, intransparent-dubios agierender Möchtegern-Präsident des DVMF, verlangt nun von seinen Gegnern Schadenersatz. Dabei hatte Veder auf Verbandskosten juristische Fehden begonnen. Wird es Klaus Schormann zu heikel? Hamburgs LV fordert, Schormanns Ehrentitel abzuerkennen.
olympic propaganda
The newsletters about the corruption allegations against IOC finance chief Ser Miang Ng are making headlines. The IOC is responding to inquiries from Singaporean media with its usual and predictably primitive propaganda.
family business
The corruption complaint against Ser Miang Ng has made its waves. Numerous members of the Olympic family are coming forward in confidence. Stay tuned. As an extra service, here are short podcasts in English, Chinese, Arabic, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Portuguese and Russian. Enjoy listening!
