In May 2013 the Koninklijke Nederlandse Krachtsport en Fitnessfederatie (KNKF), the Royal Netherlands Power Sport and Fitness Federation, has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the Athlete after his sample tested positive for the prohibited substances 2α-methyl-5α-androstan-3α.-ol-17-one (metabolite of drostanolone) and 19-norandrosterone (metabolite of nandrolone).
After notification a provisional suspension was ordered.
The Athlete failed to submit a statement in his defence nor did he attend the hearing of the KNKF Disciplinary Committee.
Without the Athlete’s statement the KNFF Disciplinary Committee decides on 18 July 2013 to impose a 2 year period of ineligibility on the Athlete, starting on the date of the provisional suspension, i.e. on 6 May 2013.
Fees and expenses for this committee shall be borne by the Athlete.
