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-noreticholanolone (metabolites of Nandrolone).
The Athlete testified he had used a supplement which he had purchased from a person known to a fellow sprinter.
The Committee concludes the Athlete acted recklessly by purchasing supplements from an unknown source and without consulting anybody regarding the safe use of the supplement.
Therefore the SAIDS Disciplinary Committee decides to impose a 2 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete starting on 15 March 2012.
