Mahjoub acknowledged in a 2011 interview with an Iranian newspaper that he threw a match against a German judoka, saying: "If I won, I would have had to compete with an Israeli athlete. And if I refused to compete with the Israeli, they would have suspended our judo federation for four years."[3] In September 2011 he competed in the Judo World Cup in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, and was slated to face Israeli Or Sasson, but refused.[4][5] In the 2012 Summer Olympic Games, where he might have had to face Israeli judoka Arik Ze'evi who had won a bronze medal at the 2004 Olympics, at the last moment he failed to join his team in London, with Iranian authorities announced that he had a "critical digestive system infection".[6]
