Caster Semenya talks about her semi-final win

This is the voice of controversial runner Caster Semenya who is at the centre of a sex change scandal which has rocked the athletics world.

The 18-year-old stormed to victory in the World Athletics 800m Championships in Berlin with a world record time of one minute and 55.45 seconds - a massive 2.45 seconds ahead of silver medallist and defending champion Janeth Jepkosgei.

But Caster’s impressive time and muscular physique has sparked speculation over whether she was really female and has led to the world athletics body, the IAAF, asking South Africa to test the star’s gender.

Caster was banned from speaking to the media following her sensational final race but Mirror.co.uk has found an interview with Caster recorded by www.letsrun.com shortly after her 800m semi-final victory.

The footage comes after Caster’s family hit out at the gender claims and pleaded with people to ‘leave their little girl alone’.

Father Jacob Semenya said "She is my little girl. I raised her and I have never doubted her gender. She is a woman and I can repeat that a million times."

Mum Dorcus Semenya defended her daughter’s victory by saying: "I am not even worried about that because I know who and what my child is. Mokgadi Caster is a girl and no one can change that."

Speaking from her home in the rural village of Seshego, near Polokwane in South Africa's Limpopo province, the mother-of-six added: "If you go at my home village and ask any of my neighbours, they would tell you that Mokgadi is a girl.

The part-time carer told South Africa's Star newspaper: "They know because they helped raise her. People can say whatever they like but the truth will remain, which is that my child is a girl. I am not concerned about such things."

Meanwhile Semenya's grandmother Maphuthi Sekgala said she been teased about her masculine appearance since the day she joined the village soccer team as the only girl.

Mrs Sekgala, 80, said: "I know she's a woman. I raised her myself."

Hahahaha, maybe mentally they're female, but obviously not physically.
