ANAD Comisia de Apel 2010_09 WADA vs Miruna Elena Trifan
December 9, 2010
In June 2010 the Agenţia Naţională Anti-Doping (ANAD), the National Anti-Doping Agency of Romania, has reported an anti-doping rule violation against the minor Athlete Miruna Elena Trifan after her sample tested positive for the prohibited substance metandienone.
The Athlete stated she had used pills provided by her coach Xenofonte Boboc. The coach admitted he gave the Athlete Naposim (metandienone) without the medical staff’s notice and without knowledge of the Athlete or members of her family.
Due to the coach guilt and the Athlete’s no fault, the ANAD Hearing Commission decides not to sanction the Athlete on 12 August 2010.
The ANAD Hearing Commission decides to impose lifetime period of ineligibility on the coach Xenofonte Boboc, starting on the date of the decision.
Hereafter in September 2010 WADA appealed the decision of the ANAD Hearing Commission with the ANAD Appeal Commission due to the Athlete’s no fault.
