In August 2004 the Irish Sport Council (ISC) has reported an Anti-Doping Rule Violation against the Athlete IS-1514 (the Athlete) after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substance Erythropoietin (EPO).
After notification the Athlete admitted the use of the substance and therefore the Panel decides on 12 August 2004 to impose a 2 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete starting on the date of the provisional suspension.
