Tajikistan judoka Nurali Emomali in the 66-kilogram event created a stir at the Paris Olympics on Sunday.
Emomali faced off against Israel’s Baruch Shmailov in the round of 16 in Pool B of the tournament. He refused to shake Shmailov’s hand after his win, according to Ynet News. He was allegedly heard yelling “Allah Akbar” toward his Israeli opponent as well.
Emomali went on to square off against Japan’s Hifumi Abe in the quarterfinals. But Emomali went down with a left arm injury as he tried to brace his fall and was forced to withdraw from the tournament.
