Athlete Caster Semenya's legal team has rubbished claims that she intends suing the International Association of Athletics Federations for 900-million rands for leaking information about gender testing that was being carried out on her.

Media reported that a website claimed Semenya intended suing the IAAF and Athletics South Africa.

The story stated that Semenya would sue the ASA for 134-million rands for its role in the gender testing row.

However, Semenya's lawyer, Greg Nott, says that he does not know where the information on the website had come from.

He summed up by saying the report is nonsense.
