Olympic silver medallist Louis Smith could face suspension from the British Gymnastics programme after a controversial video which was leaked online.
Footage shows Smith and fellow gymnast Luke Carson appearing to mock Islam by laughing whilst pretending to pray and shouting 'Allahu Akbar'.
British Gymnastics said it would investigate the incident and that the 27-year-old Smith and Carson, who retired last year, could face disciplinary action.
The governing body said: 'British Gymnastics does not condone the mocking of any faith or religion and is appalled by such behaviours.
'Gymnastics is an inclusive sport and we are proud of members who portray the inclusive values of British Gymnastics.
'Members who break our code of conduct can face suspension or expulsion from our organisation. We will be investigating the behaviours reported.'

Somehow I have a hard time believing he'd be facing suspension had he instead mocked Christianity.
He’s retired, so how can they do anything to him?
Really.
I’ll venture he’d get a free pass if he mocked Christians.
In fact, the entertainment media mock Christ and Christianity on a daily, almost hourly, basis, and that’s without the number of times they use the name of Jesus connected with the foulest obscenities.
Muslim athletes refused to be nice to Israeli athletes, insulting them and mocking them. No retribution towards the muslims. One in particular during the wrestling competition, where the muslim refused to shake hands with the Israeli. Western countries need to hold muslims accountable for their rude behavior! Behavior of most muslims towards other faiths is appalling and often disgusting! Lots of hypocrisy by Olympics officials on display.
Of course, if they had of mocked Christianity instead...
Mocking the United States national anthem makes you a hero.
Why is a bunch of guys with their collective butts in the air okay but Tebow kneeling in prayer before a game is not?
Apparently, in our PC age, Olympic athletes are not allowed to have opinions.
However the body apparently had nothing to say when uslim athletes at the Olympics refused to compete against Israelis.
Dumb ass — he should’ve mocked Christianity.
Islam is the religion of Satan. Governments are now protecting the religion of Satan?
Perhaps Tebow should start banging his head on the grass, complete with butt raised in the air, stabbing his team members while hollering ‘Allah Akhbar’. That will really endear him with the public.
Not only are Western governments protecting the death cult of Islam, they’re using it (through massive immigration) to destroy national sovereignty with the aim of eventually ushering in a borderless world having a single socialist gov’t.
That’s the one. Okay, the Egyptian muslim was reprimanded. About time.
They didn’t mock a religion; they mocked a cult. No biggie, nothing to see here folks, move along...
Maybe the Brits should sponsor an explosive vest marathon to honor the muslims that have so enriched their culture.
islam is a totalitarian death cult founded by an insane epileptic child rapist with 1 goal and that is to emulate the epileptic insane child rapist goat fucker and kill anyone that complains or doesn’t conform, show me anything in the koran that disproves this … screw mohummad bomb head, I am drawing a cartoon of the POS right now, take your third world arabian snakbar in your left hand and stuff it up your nose
other than that slugs and snails have refused to mock bomb head goat humper mo
