Cheat at the Olympics

Spanish basketball team with disabilities won in 2000 the gold medal in the Paralympics games of Sidney. But some time later the judges discovered that some of the Spanish basketball team with disabilities weren’t disabled. The one who told the judges that 10 of the 12 member of the team didn’t suffered any disability was a journalist who was all time with the team during the competition.

The judges disqualified the Spanish team, the judges notice that it was very difficult to prove if someone was mental disabled or not, so they decided to stop doing the Olympic games of basketball for mental disabled people. One of the players of the Spanish team confessed that they weren’t the only team that plays with not disabled people. He said that in swimming, some athletes and ping pong too.
