SAIDS 2011_03 SAIDS vs Johnny Young
February 17, 2013
On 17 February 2011 SAIDS Disciplinary Committee decided to impose a 2 year period on the Athlete for committing an anti-doping rule violation after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substance nandrolone.
On 29 November 2011 SAIDS granted the Athlete a reduction of his period of ineligibility by 6 months because of his assistance in educating triathlone athletes. WADA appealed against this SAIDS revision decision to reduce the Athlete’s period of ineligibility by 6 months.
The Anti-Doping Appeal Tribunal of South Africa decides to dismiss WADA’s appeal on the fact that the Athlete is neither an International-Level Athlete nor a National-Level Athlete. The Appeal Tribunal finds that WADA has not established a proper locus standi to bring the appeal against the revision decision made by SAIDS.
