It should be investigated. It's either true, and their medals should be stripped. Or it's false and their names will be cleared.
I personally think some of them are really only 12-13 years old. There was an interesting interview with a forensic expert on the other day, she does drawings etc to determine ages. And she said that most of those athletes have faces of 10-12 year olds. She can tell by the shape of the face, the size of the ears, the size of the iris etc. It was very interesting.

A hacker has allegedly found new information surrounding the true ages of the Chinese gymnasts.
Read about it here:

And now the IOC are investigating these claims.
