Ms Chrysopigi Devetzi is a Greece Athlete competing in the Women’s long jump event at the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.
In 2016, the IOC decided to perform further analyses on certain samples collected during the 2008 Olympic Games. These additional analyses were performed with analytical methods which were not available in 2008.
In July 2016 the International Olympic Committee reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Athlete after her 2008 A and B samples tested positive for the prohibited substance stanozolol.
After notification the Athlete submitted that she did not accept the test results and waived her right to be heard for the IOC Disciplinary Commission.
In September 2016 the Athleted informed the Commission that she was already sanctioned by the IAAF for her anti-doping violation.
On 6 October the IAAF confirmed to the Commission that they had imposed a 4 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete with disqualification of her results between 31 August 2007 and 30 August 2009 including her results from the 2008 Olympic Games.
Because the IAAF reported that the Athlete was already sanctioned the IOC Disciplinary Commission decides on 10 November 2016:
1.) The proceedings are filed.
2.) The IOC and the Greek Olympic Committee are invited to implement the existing decision disqualifying i.a. the Athlete’s results achieved on the occasion of the 2008 Olympic Games.
