AN AUSTRALIAN Olympic hopeful, the star cyclist Cadel Evans, may come under greater scrutiny from Chinese and Games authorities in Beijing after wearing a "Free Tibet" T-shirt during a race in Belgium.
The International Olympic Committee yesterday toughened the interpretation of its Olympic Charter, adding to the rule that no kind of demonstration or political, religious or racial propaganda is permitted at any Olympic site, venue or other area.
It has said such propaganda can include "the conduct of participants … including but not limited to their look, external appearance, clothing, gestures and written or oral statements".
