theweaselkingOne of Zimbabwe's leading junior athletes, who has won several gold medals in women's events, is really a man, police say.
Samukeliso Sithole, 17, has been charged with impersonation.
At her court appearance, she insisted that she was a woman, despite a doctor's report to the contrary.
Ms Sithole said she was born with both male and female sexual organs and a traditional healer had made the penis disappear but it had since egrown.
She told the court that the penis had returned because the healer had not been fully paid for his services.
She said that she had already arranged to pay the healer on 3 March, the day her trial is set to start, and so she expected her penis to disappear once more, according to the state-run Herald newspaper.
