The South African Institute for Drug-Free Sport (SAIDS) has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Athlete after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substances 19-norandrosterone and 19-norethicholanolone (metabolites of Nandrolone). After notification a provisional suspension was ordered on 11 August 2011.
The Athlete didn’t file a statement in his defence and declined to attend the hearing of the Disciplinary Committee.
Without Athlete’s co-operation the SAIDS Disciplinary Committee decides to impose a 2 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete starting on the date of the hearing, i.e. on 19 January 2012.
