KAZAKHSTAN'S shooting team demanded an apology from Kuwait after a spoof national anthem from the film Borat was played at a medal ceremony instead of the country's official version.
The blunder took place as Maria Dmitrienko stood on top of the podium to celebrate her gold medal performance.
But instead of the Kazkah national anthem, Dmitrienko had to listen to the song used in Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan.
The film, made by British comic Sacha Baron Cohen, portrayed Kazakhstan as a hotbed of backward racists who drink horse urine and indulge in incest.
Red-faced organisers in Kuwait apologized for the embarrassing oversight before re-staging the medal ceremony, this time with the correct version of the Kazakhstan anthem.
Kazakhstan's foreign office told local media they were investigating the incident to avoid any similar errors in the future.
