Finally, the World Free Water Swimming Organization (Wowsa) announced its rejection of the performance claimed by the swimmer Nejib Belhedi this Friday, July 1st on June 15.
The WOWSA specifies that it does not recognize the result of the 155 km crossing carried out between the Italian island of Pantelleria and the city of Hammamet in 58 hours after having undertaken all the necessary checks.
In the light of these, she found that the data she has does not comply with those presented to her by Nejib Belhedi.
Several people including swimmers such as Oussema Mellouli and Faten Ghattas called into question the controversial feat of Nejib Belhedi, while the latter broke the silence by highlighting strange affirmations.
The swimmer claimed to have achieved at the age of 70, a world performance by traveling 155 km non -stop between the Italian island of Pantelleria and the Côtes de Yasmine Hammamet Sud.
